Mehdi Osman is a CEO and seasoned software leader with eight years of focused experience building and scaling developer-first products out of New York, best known for leading OpenReplay, an open-source session replay and analytics platform that empowers teams to self-host and control customer data. He blends hands-on DevOps and infrastructure expertise—contributing Kubernetes, deployment scripting, and database schema work to the OpenReplay codebase—with strategic product and go-to-market leadership honed from roles across fintech and consulting in EMEA. Prior experience spans technical delivery, presales, and regional leadership at Quod Financial and AC Fellows, reflecting an ability to translate complex trading and cloud requirements into deployable solutions. A Y Combinator alum (S19) with a master’s in software engineering, he pairs startup-scale execution with a pragmatic engineering mindset that still dives into trackers, environment configs, and the nitty-gritty of reproducible debugging.
