Hey, I'm Javi

I lead Product and Growth at an AI startup in San Francisco, founded by Sebastian Thrun.

I joined BeReal and Retro in their early days, and that's where I learned what I still obsess over: retention, viral loops, and product experiences people actually come back to. These days I also advise early-stage consumer apps.

Everything on this screen is part of my story so far. Tap around to explore my experience, or get in touch.

Nights & Weekends

I love building things on my own time. Partly to learn new tools, but mostly because I want to understand what's actually happening under the hood of every product I use.

The one on this screen is ExpenseTracker, a personal finance app I built end to end: front-end, backend, infra, all of it. It pulls my accounts and portfolios into one place, and the latest addition is a self-hosted model that reads across all of my data to give me insights and recommendations. So far I've only shared it with friends.
