Luisa Herrmann

Product and AI leader. Founder of AINovva.

15+ years building data systems and AI products across enterprise software, manufacturing, finance, and regulated environments. I build product functions from zero and take new technical categories to market.

Background

I started as a chemical process engineer, moved into industrial product marketing, and then into product management, where an interest in process optimization led to software for manufacturing and data. Since then I have been Head of Product at Cape Privacy, expert.ai, and Arch Systems, and built the product function at ZoomInfo through its growth to $100M+ ARR.

Today I run AINovva, a bootstrapped company building AI knowledge-layer tools, and take on fractional CTO work. I also mentor early-stage founders, serve on the board of the League of Women Voters of Wellesley, and have been a guest lecturer at Harvard Medical School.

Education

BSE, Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, University of Pennsylvania. Melvin C. Molstad Award (Senior Design).

Languages

English and Portuguese (native), Spanish (fluent), French (intermediate), German (basic).
