Senior🎓
Top SchoolGirish Gupta is a San Francisco–based AI research mentor and hands-on engineering leader who blends startup execution with deep theoretical training in physics and AI. Over a decade he has built SOC2-compliant, full‑stack AI systems—from cloud infrastructure and CI/CD to mobile apps and RAG pipelines—while publishing and mentoring students toward conference-grade research on interpretability and alignment. A former foreign correspondent and investigative reporter for outlets including Reuters and the New Yorker, he uniquely applies journalistic rigor to build AI tools for human rights investigators and journalists. He has founded and led multiple startups, engineered production Document Intelligence and translation platforms for UC Berkeley’s Human Rights Center, and most recently helped scale AI-powered parenting and legal-tech products. His background in on-the-ground security and automated news-generation (a project that kickstarted his interest in NLP) gives him an unusual lens on trustworthy, mission-driven AI.
