Founders

  • José E. Carrillo PinoFounder

    Experienced software developer, continuosly learning. This is my first startup, right after university, but I'm giving it all. I'm highly optimistic, and I like to do hard things for the challenge. If there is a little chance I can do something, I'll try until achieving it.

  • Patrick WakehamFounder

    I like to: learn a lot, screw up a little, question assumptions, be told why I am wrong, equalize opportunities, maybe make this place slightly better. Previously sold a small e-commerce, spent 7 years at DB in investment banking. Self taught programmer of forgotten languages.
