Senior🎓
Top SchoolRobert Valencia is a software engineer with 11 years of industry experience and over 7 years focused in fintech, currently building at a stealth startup after a transformative tenure at Ledn. At Ledn he scaled an 8-person startup into a 120-person scaleup, led cross-functional teams, decomposed a monolith into microservices, and helped deliver products that managed $1.5B in assets and $9B in loan originations. He blends backend-first expertise (TypeScript, NodeJS, serverless, event-driven patterns) with hands-on frontend work and systems-level thinking around reliability, payments, and on-chain integrations. His background includes portfolio and trading systems at CPP Investments and formal training with an M.Sc. in Software Engineering from the University of Oxford, reflecting a mix of practical product delivery and rigorous academic grounding. Notably, he has driven risk-sensitive fintech features—custodian gateways, fiat rails, and automated liquidation—to operationalize crypto-financial products at scale.
