Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan James is a founder and engineering leader with 11 years of experience building AI, medical imaging, VR/AR, and telerobotics products that bridge research and clinical impact. As co-founder and CEO of Dopl in Seattle, he’s commercializing telerobotic ultrasound to expand access to care, drawing on a background that spans senior medical software work at NVIDIA and hands-on VR/AR surgical tools from multiple startups and UW research. He blends deep technical chops—from GPU-accelerated imaging and machine learning to full-stack product delivery—with academic rigor as a PhD-trained biomedical informatics researcher. A repeat founder and early Techstars alumnus, he has a track record of translating complex physiology and visualization research into shipped products that simplify clinical workflows. Colleagues describe him as equally comfortable in device-level optimization and CEO-level strategy, a rare combination that helps Dopl move quickly from prototypes to real-world deployments.
