Karthik Gopal is a seasoned engineering leader and founder based in the San Francisco Bay Area who has spent nearly two decades building and scaling consumer and platform products at Microsoft and Meta, then pivoting to tackle elder care after a personal loss. He led revenue-driving initiatives across Xbox, Microsoft Store, Bing, and Facebook Videos—delivering multiple high-impact products and hundreds of millions in revenue while applying machine learning to optimize ad supply and engagement. Now founding a stealth elder-care startup, he combines product and systems expertise with direct user research—talking to caregivers, families, and providers—to simplify medication management, care coordination, and clinical communication. An Android contributor to Microsoft’s popular AdaptiveCards project, he blends hands-on engineering chops with strategic leadership, aiming to bring pragmatic, tech-first solutions that preserve dignity for aging adults.
