Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDan Miller is a veteran technology leader and founder with 18 years of experience building video, robotics, and machine learning platforms from MVP to scale. As founder of On2 — whose team created the VP8/WebM codec later acquired by Google — he combines deep systems and multimedia expertise with hands-on engineering and team-building as CTO at early-stage startups. He has led efforts across robotics, security, and large-scale data pipelines, including collecting and curating over a million hours of internet video for foundational model training and contributing physics fixes to the OpenSim engine. Based in Campbell, CA, Dan blends product-focused execution with research roots (Carnegie Mellon affiliation) and a history of navigating legal and ethical data challenges from his time at hiQ Labs. Known for rolling up his sleeves to ship production systems, he now applies that same pragmatism to home robotics at Tychobot.
