CTO and Technology Expert

Alex Bobes

With 16+ years as a CTO and technology leader, I've built my career on turning complex technical challenges into practical business solutions. From writing code to leading engineering teams, I've experienced every aspect of bringing software products to life.

My expertise spans AI implementation, blockchain development, cybersecurity, and modern software architecture. But beyond the technical skills, I understand how technology shapes industries and creates new opportunities. Every project I've worked on taught me something new about what works and what doesn't.

As Managing Partner at Extremoo, I combine hands-on development experience with strategic thinking. Whether it's building AI-powered applications or scaling development teams, my approach is simple: focus on solutions that actually solve problems and deliver real value. Technology is most powerful when it serves people, not the other way around.

Helping others is Alex's life mission

Asociatia Taxi Gratis

Founded from personal tragedy, this NGO transforms loss into hope by providing free medical transportation to those in need.

After losing my mother following years of immobilization and difficult hospital visits, I founded Asociatia Taxi Gratis in 2013 in her memory. What started as a personal mission has grown into a vital community service, providing free transportation to sick individuals for over 12 years.

The NGO has covered over 2,000 kilometers and assists around 400 people per year, ensuring their journey to medical care is less of a burden. Starting with my personal sedan, I later upgraded to a specially adapted minibus with a ramp for people with disabilities.

When COVID-19 hit, I expanded our mission to directly support healthcare workers in Bucharest. I equipped our vehicles with protective panels between driver and passenger, ensuring safe transportation for medical staff between their homes and state hospitals. Beyond transportation, we also delivered water and essential goods to Emergency Hospital Bagdasar-Arseni. Both doctors and support personnel like medical nurses could access this free service through our dedicated project page. During this critical period, we transported dozens of medical staff members, as I shared with Capital.ro newspaper.
