Rohan Mehta is a software engineer and founder with a background spanning early product engineering at Meta and startup leadership through a Y Combinator-backed gaming/entertainment venture that raised $2.3M and was acquired in 2024. Now a Member of Technical Staff at OpenAI, he blends hands-on expertise in Python, TypeScript, Flutter, and AI tooling with product instincts honed by shipping consumer-facing systems and developer frameworks. His work at Meta ranged from generative AI frameworks to AR systems and server-driven UI platforms used across major social apps, demonstrating comfort with both low-level system architecture and high-level product surfaces. Rohan is selective about industry fit—explicitly avoiding finance roles—and brings a practical appetite for applied AI, having integrated models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Llama, and Mistral into production workflows. An entrepreneurial coder with a math-and-CS foundation from Colgate, he pairs decade-plus engineering experience with a knack for turning AI prototypes into scalable products.
