Leandro, based in London, co-founded XONAI (with Brock Doiron) with the mission to remove fundamental bottlenecks present in very resource-intensive software. He designed and implemented the underlying compiler and execution engine, which, when integrated with big data analytics platforms, delivers market-leading performance across a wide range of standardised benchmarks. Prior to XONAI, Leandro worked from 3-person startups to large startups alike, and gets very easily bored if not being challenged.
