Jai Chopra is a Senior Product Manager in San Francisco with a decade of experience building AI-first products and platforms, currently leading multimodal AI efforts at Uber. He was the first product hire and Head of Product at LanceDB (YC W22), where he helped pivot and take a developer-focused vector/multimodal database from 0 to 1 and contributed code and examples that integrate LanceDB with LangChain and OpenAI. Prior to that he led technical product teams at Cruise focused on perception, prediction, and ML/platform tooling, combining hands-on engineering background with product strategy. With an MS in Computer Science and early startup founding and CTO experience, he blends founder grit, full-stack development chops, and a track record of shipping infrastructure that powers real-world AI applications. An understated strength is his ability to move fluidly between shipping code and shaping developer-facing product journeys, evidenced by active contributions to an open-source AI retrieval stack.
