Ozge Whiting is a CTO and co-founder with 13 years of industry experience and a PhD in Computer Vision from Brown, specializing in building production AI systems for complex visual and sensor-driven workflows. She has led ML and computer vision teams at biotech and industrial-inspection startups, architecting cloud-native platforms that autonomously monitor and act on microscopic and aerial imagery. Her work spans end-to-end systems—from low-level C++ vision libraries (contributions to the long-running vxl project) to scalable AI Engines that drive automated cell manufacturing and robotic asset inspection. A pragmatic product-minded researcher, she has repeatedly translated government and academic-grade algorithms (DEM generation, multiview stereo, change detection) into operational software and commercial offerings. Based in Cambridge, MA, she blends deep technical authorship with founder-level strategy in stealth-stage ventures. An implicit strength is her track record of delivering reproducible, production-ready pipelines that close the loop between perception and physical actuation.
