Matthew Stump is a technology founder and infrastructure architect with over two decades of experience building cloud-native, distributed systems and AI/ML-driven observability platforms. He has led high-stakes cloud transformations—including the first mission-critical public cloud migration for an Australian bank—and scaled engineering organizations and product delivery across startups and Fortune 500s. As CEO of an AI observability startup he built ML pipelines and probabilistic models that outperformed human experts in root-cause analysis, and at SecurityScorecard and First Republic Bank he drove real-time streaming, Kubernetes adoption, and major cost and velocity improvements. A pragmatic open-source contributor, he’s fixed core build and dependency issues in projects like DataStax’s C++ Cassandra driver, reflecting a knack for reducing technical debt at the systems level. Based in San Francisco, he advises investors and portfolio companies on technical due diligence, cloud strategy, and operational resilience.
