We put builders inside mission-driven organizations.
Funkubator helps startups and mission-driven organizations ship better products. We run AI enablement sprints, user research, and usability research — short engagements that give teams clarity and momentum without hiring a full-time product person.
Noemi Titarenco — Founder
Engineer turned product leader. Noemi spent three years running product for digital learning at a premier U.S. research institution — where her work grew daily engaged learners thirty-fold — and before that was Head of Product at a game-based edtech startup co-founded with Atari's founder, joining as the second employee as it grew from a $5M to a $40M valuation. She started her career building open-source software and never stopped: her prototypes, agents, and tools are public at github.com/noemit. She writes about product and AI at noemititarenco.com.
Team
Iago — Operations & Client Success
The person who makes sure engagements run on time, check-ins happen, and nothing falls through the cracks. If you're a client, you'll hear from him weekly — and you'll be glad you did.
David — Senior Engineering
The deep technical bench for sprints: architecture, AI integration, and the hard parts. When a prototype needs to survive contact with real data, that's David.
Plus senior contract designers and researchers, brought in per engagement.
Client names and logos are shared on intro calls — some of our best work is under confidentiality.
What we believe
- ✓We do not write reports and leave. We embed with your staff. We lower the technical barrier so they can.
- ✓Your team ships prototypes in days, not months.
- ✓We remove repetitive work. We do not remove people.
- ✓Experience beats content. A useful tool people adopt is better than a perfect tool they ignore.
