Top SchoolDani Arnaout is a San Francisco Bay Area–based technology founder and engineering leader, currently Co-Founder and CTO of Flyp, which aims to decentralize commerce by automating and scaling the resale gig economy. He previously co-founded Saily, a top-ranked secondhand shopping app with millions of downloads, whose team joined Mercari in 2018 to help take the company public at a $4 billion valuation. A Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree and frequent press subject, Dani combines hands-on software craft with strategic product and growth leadership across marketplaces, classifieds, and e-commerce. He led engineering at Mercari during its IPO-related growth and later built Flyp into a capital-backed venture that has attracted major investor and media attention.
