Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBeau Cronin is a Principal Product Manager and former startup founder with 11+ years building products at the intersection of data, machine learning, and energy systems. After a PhD in computational neuroscience from MIT, he co-founded two probabilistic-inference companies—one acquired by Salesforce—and later helped scale WeaveGrid from first commercial deal to millions in ARR and thousands of vehicles on platform through roles spanning engineering, operations, and product. He brings a rare blend of hands-on technical depth and strategic product leadership, having led engineering ops, served as chief of staff to a CTO, and run venture-studio initiatives that spin up impact-focused businesses. Based in Berkeley, he pairs academic rigor with operator experience across healthcare, life sciences, and demand-side energy, and has an appetite for tackling complex, real-world systems where probabilistic reasoning and product meet.
