Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan Kashi is a founder and technical leader with a decade of experience building high-scale consumer and hardware products, from wearable biomedical devices to livestreaming platforms. He founded Tenami, which engineered the world’s largest Netflix watch party and a secure, widevine-enabled streaming stack serving tens of thousands concurrently, and currently builds Makeayo, a consumer desktop app generating over a million images weekly with local Stable Diffusion. His background spans embedded hardware design at Niche Biomedical and early engineering at Intel, giving him rare fluency across firmware, ML inference, cloud streaming, and front-end UX. He has raised capital, negotiated studio sublicenses, and shipped production-grade DRM, CDN, and adaptive-bitrate systems—skills that bridge product, operations, and deep technical architecture. Based in Santa Monica and trained in EECS at UC Berkeley and UCSB, he combines researcher-level rigor with a founder’s bias for shipping.
