About Me
I'm Antonio Angelino, a Startup CTO, fractional CTO, and tech leadership coach with over 15 years of experience in the industry. I help startup tech leaders scale their teams, ship faster, and lead with confidence.

Why I Coach
My coaching journey started from my own experience as a solo founder and overwhelmed CTO. I remember the sleepless nights, the imposter syndrome, and the constant pressure to make the right technical decisions while building a team and scaling a product. I know what it feels like to be responsible for everything and have nowhere to turn for guidance.
Coaching isn't just what I do, it's my way of giving others the support and strategic perspective I desperately needed during my own journey. Every leader deserves a trusted advisor who's been in their shoes.
Why I Mentor Too
Beyond leadership coaching, I bring over 20 years of hands-on experience in developing, architecting, and designing SaaS applications and cloud infrastructures. From my early days as a freelance web developer to founding multiple successful startups and leading engineering teams of 60+ people, I've navigated every stage of the technical journey.
I mentor because technical expertise without proper guidance can lead to costly mistakes and missed opportunities. Whether you're choosing between microservices and monoliths, designing event-driven architectures, or implementing multi-cloud strategies, I've been there. I've made the mistakes, learned the lessons, and built the systems that scale.
My mentoring covers the full spectrum: from system design and cloud architecture to team scaling, technical debt management, and platform strategy. I help engineers and technical leaders make informed decisions based on real-world experience, not just theoretical knowledge.
