Summary
David Bellotti is a partner and seasoned start-up engineer with 11 years of experience helping entrepreneurs launch products from first experiments to production-ready systems. He leads engineering teams and delivers end-to-end solutions—mobile apps, custom OSes, CI/CD, and hardware-software integrations—at boutique consultancy Creative Brains and as Head of Engineering for companies like Coinmine and Fun. David combines hands-on coding and architecture with hiring, agile transformation, and go-to-market pragmatism, often stepping into fractional CTO and technical advisor roles to get teams from zero to launch. He has deep interest and applied experience in crypto and emerging genAI integrations, having built data pipelines and prompt-driven systems for recent clients. Based in Santa Monica, he’s the kind of builder who deployed solar on his own home and brings that same DIY, get-things-done ethos to product and infrastructure work.
