Chris Bruce is a serial founder and engineering CEO with 15+ years building AI-powered products end-to-end, from embedded sensor systems to scalable Rust backends. He has led companies through acquisition (Sproutling → Mattel, Rupture → EA), raised $55M, and grown teams ranging from two to 120 while owning architecture, code, and product strategy. His work uniquely spans hardware ML (early infant-wearable sleep prediction) to modern semantic search and LLM integrations—most recently shipping SlateHub, an open-source Rust/Axum platform with SurrealDB vector storage and production BGE embeddings. Comfortable alternating between high-level strategy and hands-on engineering, he has launched award-winning computer vision and media tooling that attracted enterprise customers. Based in Berlin, he’s seeking a senior remote role at the intersection of AI product and engineering where he can define, build, and ship impactful systems.
