Roosevelt Innocent
CEO & Co-Founder
Roosevelt Innocent is the CEO and Co-Founder of Mango, where he leads the company's vision to create technology that enhances human connection and understanding. With a deep background in both design and engineering, Roosevelt brings a unique perspective to building products that are as technically sophisticated as they are beautifully crafted.
Prior to founding Mango, Roosevelt worked at Slack, where he contributed to building communication tools used by millions of people worldwide. This experience shaped his understanding of how technology can either fragment or strengthen human connections—and inspired his mission to create something fundamentally different.
At Mango, Roosevelt oversees product development, engineering architecture, and the company's overall strategic direction. His design philosophy centers on creating technology that feels invisible, allowing people to focus on what truly matters in their lives.
Roosevelt's approach combines technical rigor with human-centered design. He believes the most powerful technology isn't about adding more features or demanding more attention—it's about understanding context, anticipating needs, and responding with the right support at the right moment.
Under his leadership, Mango is building AI that serves as a genuine companion rather than just another digital assistant. Roosevelt is passionate about the intersection of design, engineering, and psychology, committed to building a company culture that values deep work, thoughtful design, and the belief that technology should enhance humanity, not replace it.
