Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKenji Baheux is a Senior Product Manager based in Chiyoda, Japan with 12 years of experience blending a software-engineering foundation and deep product leadership across web platforms, consumer electronics, and AI/ML. At Google he has repeatedly shipped high-impact Chrome platform features—Private Prefetch Proxy, Prerender2, Back/Forward Cache, Service Worker and WOFF2—improving navigation speed, reliability and privacy for millions of users. Comfortable moving between low-level systems (device drivers, haptics, graphics) and high-level web APIs, he excels at turning technically risky ideas into pragmatic, cross-browser solutions. Now leading WebAI efforts in Chrome, he pairs rigorous PhD-level technical thinking with a track record of measurable performance gains and developer-friendly APIs. An unusual strength is his history of shipping both hardware-proximate R&D from Sharp and large-scale web platform changes at Google, giving him rare breadth across device, browser and cloud.
