Top SchoolMoaaz Sidat is a software engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable products across robotics, conversational AI, and developer platforms, currently contributing to Amazon Fulfillment Technologies & Robotics. He has led engineering at ETHGlobal where he built core infrastructure—MySQL migrations, a GraphQL API, tooling and payments—that powered 100+ global hackathons and new on-/off-chain product primitives. At Dialogue he scaled conversational systems and ML infra to support millions during the pandemic, later leading teams that automated medical triage and launched iCBT. A hands-on full-stack contributor, he’s active in open source (notably improving Rasa’s NLG interpolation and maintaining a popular React Native QR scanner) and balances software craft with hardware and robotics hacking. He also founded consumer and design-focused ventures, blending product design roots from uWaterloo with engineering leadership and a knack for shipping pragmatic automation. An uncommon strength is pairing deep production engineering with developer-experience work that empowers communities and events at scale.
