Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Tibbetts is a serial entrepreneur and engineering leader with 17+ years building and scaling AI, analytics, and real-time systems, currently managing Product Frontiers engineering at Anthropic. He founded three venture-backed startups—StreamBase (acquired by TIBCO) and Empirical Systems (acquired by Tableau) among them—and has deep experience taking product vision through technical validation, fundraising, and enterprise sales. A hands-on player-coach, he has driven adoption of sophisticated tech across financial services, IoT, and analytics, and led the integration of explainable analytics into Tableau’s product line. He prototypes AI-driven workflows and data integration solutions for startups and enterprises, advising companies on product strategy, org design, and go-to-market. Based in Arlington, MA with an M.Eng. from MIT, he combines research collaborations (BayesDB/Probabilistic Computing) with practical success in acquisitions and building distributed systems. An unusual constant in his career is pairing evangelistic enterprise selling with deep technical authorship—designing languages like StreamSQL and guiding teams from patent to product.
