Top SchoolSergi Porta is an engineering manager with 13 years of experience who currently leads Manychat’s AI engineering organization, owning strategy, delivery, hiring, and the technical quality of AI features that handle millions of interactions.

His background ranges from enterprise C++ systems at HP to founding-engineer work at a London startup where he helped raise seed funding and shipped the initial product. Sergi blends deep technical craft with people leadership: he designs hiring and onboarding, codifies architecture decisions via ADRs, and runs structured 1:1s to boost retention and developer growth. He’s an early adopter of AI-assisted engineering workflows and pragmatic about removing friction so engineers can do meaningful work. Based in Barcelona with a telecommunications engineering master’s, he focuses on building organizations that scale and where good engineers want to stay.
