Pangea.ai | Hire Fractional CTO/CPOs, Forward Deployed Engineers & AI-native teams without the hiring lottery | Bootstrapped to $250M GMV
I’m a connector and operator. For nearly a decade, I've linked top dev agencies and talent globally with leading brands through Digital Knights and Pangea.ai. Since 2015, I have believed that the future of work is globally distributed. I co-founded Pangea.ai with a mission to democratize opportunity because it should be equal for all. My results on the journey include: → Founded the company at 26 years old with zero experience, technical expertise, or funding. → Bootstrapped Digital Knights and its successor, Pangea.ai. → Hired a diverse team of 16 nationalities and 70% women. → We went from $0 to mid $7-figures in ARR. → Facilitated over $250m in business on the platform. → Connected over 1500+ companies with the right talent from dev agencies. → Built a talent platform with over 120+ dev agencies and 12000+ talent → Built an organizational due diligence framework to source and filter for top dev agencies I use firsthand experience and industry insights to offer advice on hiring and market expansion at Pangea.ai. My experience enabled me to angel invest in early-stage companies: → Groq | AI | US → Flooz | Web3 | US → Amini.ai | AI | Kenya → Deckmatch | AI | Norway → Synthflow.ai | AI | Germany → Gotiger | E-commerce | Germany → Nelly Solutions | Embedded finance | Germany Today, I help founders reach milestones and accelerate the speed at which they do business with the right talent.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's career trajectory as a founder aligns well with the 'Founder and CTO' target role, indicating a strong entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to build and lead. Their experience in building platforms for hiring tech talent suggests an understanding of the technical ecosystem and talent needs. However, the lack of direct technical contributions or leadership in software development projects might pose a challenge for a CTO role that typically requires deep technical credibility and hands-on experience.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate demonstrates strong leadership, entrepreneurial drive, and strategic thinking through their founder roles. Experience in sales and process automation suggests an ability to drive operational efficiency and growth. However, the resume lacks explicit details on team management methodologies, technical project leadership, or direct software development operational experience, which are critical for a CTO role.
