Summary
Justin Parus is a CTO and cofounder with a decade of experience building high-scale infrastructure, ML operations, and low-level systems. He led a control plane service at Microsoft Azure that still runs across millions of machines and informed Azure's next-generation hardware, and now applies that production-grade rigor to Soundry AI’s text-to-sample music generation. Comfortable across networking, host-level services, and model deployment, he blends hands-on engineering with product-focused leadership. Early robotics and campus IT roles reveal a practical, systems-first mindset and a knack for turning complex hardware-software problems into reliable services.
