Cohort 2025A

Julio Rodriguez

Boston

My journey started in IT at a credit union, where clunky old systems made life harder for folks who needed it the most. That didn’t sit right with me, so I switched to engineering to build solutions that include people instead of leaving them behind. I’m also obsessed with the details (yes, I’ll optimize that query until it screams), but never lose sight of who’s on the other side of the screen. For example, when I built LifeTrack, an inventory app for small businesses, I made sure it worked on cheap phones and spotty networks. I want to work with people who believe tech can do better, and build with empathy as much as code. If you’re tired of bandaids and want to fix the root problems, let’s talk.
