Han Jin is a serial founder and product-focused CEO with eight years of experience building AI and blockchain infrastructure and generative AI tools from concept to market. Based in the Bay Area, he cofounded Bluwhale to scale personalization on blockchains and previously led Lucid, a generative-AI short video startup, while also advising entrepreneurship programs at Stanford GSB. His background spans product management, supply chain optimization, and machine learning—having built SanDisk’s first ML-driven demand-forecasting system and led cross-functional product teams across hardware and software. A global upbringing and non-linear career—working odd jobs in eight countries to support his family—shaped a resilient, resourceful approach to building startups under pressure. Featured in Forbes, Fast Company and Bloomberg, he combines fundraising and go-to-market savvy with hands-on technical intuition in VR/AR, open source and digital art communities. Han holds an M.Eng from UC Berkeley and leverages academic teaching experience in AI and statistics to bridge research, product and execution.
