Abhishek Singh is a founder and CTO with a decade of engineering experience, currently building EON.Health after completing an MIT PhD and MS in the Media Lab. He blends deep research credentials with hands-on systems and security engineering—his open-source contributions include substantive work on the widely used Nmap project (network scanning and Ncat improvements) and a privacy-preserving COVID contact app. Comfortable across mobile, backend, and networking stacks, he has solved production security and efficiency challenges (DNS resolver optimizations, protocol features) and shipped platform-specific mobile features and background services. Prior internships and research at Cisco, IIIT, and Google Summer of Code reflect a long-running focus on SafeAI, meta-learning, and practical security tooling. Notably, he pairs startup leadership with low-level network and protocol expertise, making him equally effective at product strategy and diving into C/C++ or mobile implementation details.
