Dillion Verma is a founder and software engineer with a decade of experience building high-impact products at the intersection of developer tooling, AI, and consumer crypto. Based in San Francisco, he founded Magic UI—the largest open-source animated component library with 20,000+ GitHub stars in under a year—and has a track record of fast-moving, product-first projects like llm.report (Vercel AI Accelerator winner) and Refract.so. His background spans roles at Nvidia, Shopify, Splunk and Atomic.Finance, where he shipped cloud gaming features, production database tooling, security orchestration, and bitcoin-native yield products.
