Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTomas Almeida is a pragmatic CTO and co-founder with nine years of engineering experience building resilient, production-grade systems across fintech, crypto payments, and platform engineering. He designs defensively for real-world failure modes—double-entry ledgers, idempotent operations, and replay-safe event pipelines—and has implemented custody and blockchain abstraction layers to simplify merchant-facing crypto rails. A former cyber security consultant for NATO who was once an early “hacker” turned white-hat, he combines strong security instincts with hands-on full-stack and DevOps skills honed at Amazon, IBM, and multiple startups. Based in Barcelona and self-taught in many areas, Tomas also serves as a fractional CTO helping startups scale product, infrastructure, and fundraising readiness. Notably, he brings a habit of baking observability, multi-tenancy, and fault-tolerant design into products from day one, translating complex distributed systems into developer-friendly platforms.
