Madhuri Yechuri is a founder and CEO based in San Francisco with 11 years of engineering experience building cloud-native, stateful infrastructure and ML/GenAI platforms. She led product and engineering for Flocker at ClusterHQ—helping bring the first solution for running stateful apps in containers to market—and later founded Elotl to enable self-hosted GenAI inference, RAG, and vector DBs to address cost and privacy concerns. Her background spans deep systems work at VMware and Oracle, from VM resource management and power optimization to database and kernel-level improvements, giving her a rare combination of product vision and low-level technical fluency. She’s an active contributor to open-source DevOps tooling, with notable work improving RHEL/AWS provisioning and Docker integrations for the widely referenced flocker project. This mix of enterprise partnerships, sales engineering, and hands-on systems design makes her adept at turning research-grade ideas into deployable, enterprise-ready platforms.
