Summary
Amrutavarsh Kinagi is a founder‑engineer and Co‑CEO with 8 years of experience building computer vision products that bridge ML research and real‑world interaction, from wearable lip‑reading aids to real‑time translated calls used across 150+ countries. He co‑founded Helen AI, an award‑winning wearable lip‑reading system, and later scaled EzDubs into a live translation service acquired by Cisco, demonstrating both deep technical delivery and go‑to‑market execution. His background in autonomous humanoid robotics and intelligent racing underpins a knack for computationally efficient vision systems on edge devices (Jetson Nano, ToF/depth sensors) and embedded control. Trained in Computer Science and Mathematics (First Class Honors, HKUST) with humanities grounding and advanced study at Columbia, he excels at turning complex algorithms into simple, user‑centered products. Less obvious: he pairs product leadership and fundraising with hands‑on debugging and low‑level embedded work, making him a rare operator comfortable from PCB and MCU design up through cloud‑scale deployment.
