Juan Chomali

Buckle up for the great process of Juan Chomali. This guy’s the real deal, straight up. He’s part of YC W23, so he’s fresh off the boat, but don’t let that fool you. Dude’s got some serious chops.

Before jumping into the startup game, Juan was grinding at Goldman Sachs – yeah, the big leagues, finance and all that. But what’s crazy is he didn’t stop there. He jumped into Polo, which is all about building restaurant software that actually works – no bullshit, just solid tech that makes life easier for restaurants in LatAm. I mean, launching PoloPay with changing menus? That’s advanced, especially because it’s tailored for Latin America, where the food scene is booming but tech solutions are still catching up.

What does this say about him? Well, Juan’s not the type to stick to the status quo. He’s been around the block in finance, saw the gaps in the restaurant industry, and decided to build something that actually moves the needle. He’s super motivated to solve real problems, not just chase buzzwords. That’s why he jumped into YC – to scale this thing and make an impact.

His story is basically about someone who’s been through the hustle. From Goldman Sachs to founding Polo, he’s all about taking those big experiences and turning them into something that actually matters. Starting something for Juan isn’t just about stats or funding – it’s about fixing shit that’s broken and making life better for people. That’s why he’s worth watching.

Long story short, Juan is one of those founders who’s got the brains, grit, and vision to shake things up. Keep an eye on him – he’s just getting started.
