Rodrigo Coelho has been appointed as the new CEO of Edge & Node, a company focused on decentralized innovation and closely linked with The Graph's ecosystem. Coelho, who was The Graph's first hire, steps into this role following Tegan Kline, who will continue to serve on the Edge & Node board within The Graph ecosystem.
Coelho's career began in the late 1990s when he co-founded an application development shop. His experience includes founding and exiting two tech startups as CEO before joining The Graph in 2017 after meeting co-founder Yaniv Tal. His vision for blockchain and decentralization aligns with Edge & Node’s mission to expand The Graph's capabilities.
Under Coelho’s leadership, Edge & Node aims to enhance research and development, community empowerment, and partnerships. He states, "We’ve built through bear markets with the same passion that sparked the project at its inception." Coelho emphasizes prioritizing developer experience, education, and support as the ecosystem grows.
Edge & Node is set to focus on subgraphs, indexing, and decentralized infrastructure under Coelho’s guidance. As the company enters this new phase, it remains committed to developing technology that provides access to onchain data globally.
