Your AI product needs a builder in the room.

I embed with startups to lead product strategy and build hands-on — from concept to production.

Sound familiar?

Build products that ship and teams that execute.

If you're a founder or CEO, I'll partner with you to turn your vision into a working product — with the product strategy, technical leadership, and hands-on build to get there.

Services

Two ways to work together, depending on where you are.

ENGAGEMENT TYPE 01

Fractional CPTO

Senior product and tech leadership, embedded in your team.

Right for you if:

  • You're building an AI product and have no senior product/tech leader
  • You need strategy, roadmap, and execution — not just advice
  • You want someone who speaks both founder and engineer
  • Your product is live but traction is slower than expected

3–12 months · Remote · Contractor in USD or EUR

ENGAGEMENT TYPE 02

Builder 0→1

From concept to working product in production, fast.

Right for you if:

  • You have a validated idea and need to ship a first version
  • You want to test an AI-powered feature before hiring a full team
  • You need hands-on build, not leadership bandwidth

4–12 weeks · Defined scope · Remote

About

Twenty years of building.
The last three in AI.

I'm Leo Pabon — computer engineer turned product manager, turned Head of Product, turned CPTO.

I started writing code, grew into leading product teams at companies like Accenture, Quero Educação, and QuintoAndar, and never stopped shipping. That combination — engineering depth plus product leadership — is what I bring to every engagement.

Today, I'm Co-founder and CPTO at Naturita, building AI-powered personalized nutrition via WhatsApp. I run CorcovadoAI to work with select startups on AI product problems I find genuinely interesting. I also advise startups at Investidores.vc.

Naturita

Built GaIA, a GenAI engine that transforms static meal plans into real-time personalized experiences delivered via WhatsApp. From zero to production: conversational AI, nutrition personalization, and a full B2C commerce layer — all inside a chat.

Tell me what you're building.

If you're an early-stage team working on an AI product — or trying to figure out how AI fits into what you're building — I'd like to hear about it.
