Summary
Roger Carvalho is a founder and product-driven technologist with 10 years of experience building privacy-first, AI-enabled consumer and enterprise products from concept to market. He combines hands-on engineering and systems architecture with product leadership honed at Meta Reality Labs, where he led XR identity and SDK efforts that scaled to thousands of deployments and cut setup time fivefold. As founder of Clipbeam he shipped a 0-to-1, offline-first Retrieval-Augmented Generation app that runs fully on Apple Silicon, unifying multimodal ingestion, local LLM inference, and real‑time voice interaction to create a “second brain” focused on data ownership. Earlier startup and corporate roles at UpCast, Vodafone, Tesco and media companies show a consistent track record of launching MVPs, driving engagement metrics, and securing partnerships and funding. He blends strategic roadmap thinking with the ability to execute complex technical builds, and his background in dramatic arts hints at an unusual emphasis on user experience and conversational interfaces.
