Flutter Brazil announces new Chief Technology Officer and appoints VPs for Betnacional

Flutter Brazil, the ecosystem that brings together the Betnacional and Betfair brands, announces Bernardo Heynemann as its new Chief Technology Officer (CTO). The executive's arrival reinforces the company's strategy of strengthening its technology department, focusing on security, performance, and innovation across the group's platforms. The company also announces two new leadership positions in Betnacional's technology department.

Heynemann takes on the role after two years as Vice President of Engineering at Betnacional. Now leading Flutter Brazil’s entire technology structure, he will be responsible for driving architectural evolution, system integration, and continuous development of solutions within Flutter Entertainment’s global ecosystem.

Our challenge is to expand Flutter Brazil’s technological capabilities, ensuring scalability, stability, and security for the group’s brands. The goal is to make sure our platforms keep pace with business growth while providing safe and consistent experiences for users,” said Bernardo Heynemann, the company’s CTO.

The company also announced two new leadership appointments in Betnacional’s technology area. Rafael Moraes takes over as Vice President of Foundations, leading critical areas such as SRE, IT Infrastructure, and Cybersecurity. Meanwhile, Matheus Zaqueu becomes the new Vice President of Engineering, responsible for Betting & Games and PAM platforms and products.

With the birth of Flutter Brazil, we needed to scale operations that were already successful. These changes strengthen our technical foundation and demonstrate the maturity of the Flutter ecosystem in the country. We have a team ready to sustain growth with innovation and reliability,” said João Studart, CEO of Flutter Brazil.

With more than 400 employees, Flutter Brazil operates under a hybrid and collaborative work model, with offices in Recife, São Paulo, and Marechal Cândido Rondon, as well as remote professionals across different regions of the country.

Flutter Brazil

Flutter Brazil is one of the country’s largest sports betting ecosystems, born from the merger between NSX Brazil — the Brazilian company behind Betnacional — and Flutter Entertainment, the global industry leader and owner of Betfair.

Led by a Brazilian management team that ensures national identity and proximity to the local market — key to effective public and regulatory communication — the company combines cutting-edge technology with deep audience insight, promoting a safe, transparent, and responsible entertainment experience.

Flutter Brazil reinforces its commitment to the healthy development of the sector through a solid partnership with the Brazilian Institute for Responsible Gaming (IBJR).
