Silvia grew up around large-scale real estate development, seeing firsthand how underwriting decisions determine whether projects move forward, and how much of the process remains manual. She now leads Bilrost, building autonomous loan infrastructure to modernize real estate finance. She previously led product at Blockchain.com, where her team drove 30x trading volume growth and secured over $1B in AUM. Earlier, she worked with AI pioneer David Ferrucci at Bridgewater and conducted deep learning research at MIT.

I’m a founder-CTO focused on building AI-native systems that turn messy, real-world information into reliable, scalable products. At Bilrost, I’m building infrastructure that applies modern AI and systems engineering to high-stakes financial workflows—where accuracy, traceability, and performance actually matter. My work sits at the intersection of AI-driven automation, developer productivity, and large-scale platform architecture, with a strong bias toward shipping real products, not demos. Before Bilrost, I spent two decades building and scaling consumer and enterprise platforms used by millions—from mobile-first products to low-latency, high-throughput backend systems operating at global scale. I’ve led organizations, shipped dozens of production apps, modernized legacy platforms, and driven architectural transitions that materially improved cost, reliability, and speed.
