David Benhaim is a founder and advisor with 13 years of experience building hardware-driven platforms that bridge robotics, additive manufacturing, and distributed software. After studying EECS at MIT he co-founded Markforged, scaling it from startup to a public company and serving as CTO, and most recently led Backflip AI to advance 3D creation systems. He combines hands-on engineering with product obsessiveness, focusing on practical applications of AI, cryptography, and robotics to deliver high-quality, production-ready products. Based in Miami, he advises startups and boards, bringing rare expertise at the intersection of firmware, cloud systems, and manufacturing. An optimist by outlook, he’s equally fascinated by bold, unconventional ideas—from airships to new distributed systems—that could reshape how we build physical products.
