Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNatalie Serrino is a seasoned founder and engineer with 11 years building cloud-native observability and ML infrastructure, currently co-founding Gimlet Labs to simplify on-device AI deployment. As a founding engineer at Pixie (acquired by New Relic) she shipped backend and database improvements for a CNCF observability project that helps developers monitor apps without code changes, and contributed streaming APIs and Kubernetes-aware query tooling. Her background spans startups and research—she was a visiting scholar at Stanford exploring eBPF and Kubernetes for distributed ML workloads—and she brings a rare mix of production systems expertise and academic curiosity. Based in San Francisco, Natalie combines hands-on backend engineering with product instincts to move complex edge inference stacks from prototype to production.
