IRANZI Thierry

I co-founded Instant Cloud (opens in a new tab) (instant.rw), a cloud platform that takes any source repo and turns it into a live production app - handling builds, deploys, auto-scaling, managed databases, domains, edge routing, and security, all on infrastructure we own and operate in Rwanda.

At 18, I founded Cognova AI, an AI-powered customer support platform that enabled businesses to create personalized AI sales agents that handle customer interactions on their social platforms and websites, allowing business owners to focus on growth - later acquired by On Mark TT Enterprises Limited.

I've also worked part-time at Polar (opens in a new tab) (polar.sh) as a Customer Support & Internal Tools Engineer, shipping features and fixes across the product.

My work spans open-source, enterprise, and fintech, with a focus on authentication, privacy, and intelligent systems. I care about turning hard technical problems into software people enjoy using - clean code, thoughtful UX, fast iteration.
