Senior🎓
Top SchoolJay Cano is an AI product engineer and seasoned software leader with over two decades of cross-domain experience, specializing in full-stack web development, cloud computing, and team leadership. He has a strong track record scaling startups—founding Plotist, growing it to a 10-person team and 10k users—and later shaping early-stage growth and AI search at Techspert.io. Jay spent four years leading data-intensive Trust & Safety engineering at the Wikimedia Foundation, building automation and tools to mitigate harassment across global wiki communities. Comfortable shifting between hands-on architecture and people management, he has repeatedly transformed product roadmaps into resilient, production-ready systems. His background blends formal study in engineering, sociology and data science (including MITx MicroMasters work) with practical research experience in computational modelling, a combination that informs his thoughtful approach to abuse-mitigation and user-centered product design. Based in Aberdeen, he prefers tackling hard social-technical problems where engineering, data and policy intersect.
