Jayesh Gupta is a deep learning researcher and engineer with 13 years of experience who co-founded Silurian AI after founding-stage work at Poly and a senior research role at Microsoft. His expertise spans data-driven simulations—from sensors to weather and climate systems—alongside deep reinforcement learning, planning, and multi-agent coordination informed by a PhD from Stanford. At Microsoft he led large-scale simulation projects, and his Stanford thesis on modularity and coordination reflects a focus on scalable, structured decision-making. He contributes to open-source tooling around decision processes (helping improve the widely used JuliaPOMDP ecosystem through documentation, tests, and maintenance), showing an attention to reproducibility and developer experience. Based in Kirkland, WA, he combines academic rigor with startup pragmatism, often bridging system identification and RL to build practical, multi-agent solutions. An understated through-line in his career is turning theoretical insights into maintainable code and clear documentation that accelerates team delivery.
