About
Hi, I'm Emilio.
I'm a working student in the CEO office at Gonder Group and a Master in Management student at NOVA SBE in Lisbon. Besides that, I…
- Build products: an operations platform at Gonder, ImmoApp together with Jan, the AI assistant Co-Driver, and Apto at a hackathon.
- Test ideas against held-out data and publish what fails too: none of the 15,000 candidate trading strategies my search produced survived.
- Freelance on AI agents and web apps for Connecto / HyCharge, Rancyne and a Microsoft 365 client.
- Look for an applied AI or AI product development internship from January 2027. Download my CV or say hi.
