Ehsan Azarnasab is a pragmatic AI and embedded systems leader with 13+ years building deployed signal-processing, computer vision, and deep learning systems across startups and Microsoft research teams. As a co-founder and former CTO, he has taken algorithms from embedded firmware and realtime neural signal processing to cloud-scale computer vision and multimodal GenAI at Microsoft, blending low-level driver work with high-level model engineering. He contributed to the dlib C++ ecosystem by improving its cross-platform build and packaging, reflecting a knack for making research-grade code reliably build and ship. Comfortable across C/C++, Python, CUDA and embedded toolchains, he repeatedly bridges the gap between hardware-constrained firmware and production AI services. Based in Redmond, he pairs academic training in electrical engineering and computer science with hands-on entrepreneurship and a taste for coffee, audiobooks and well-engineered systems.
