Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSahin Olut is a Principal Software Engineer based in San Francisco with nine years of experience building production platforms and shipping scalable systems at Rippling. He transitioned from a PhD researcher in machine learning at UNC-Chapel Hill—authoring papers in ECCV and MICCAI—to applying that research rigor to large-scale engineering problems. At Rippling he progressed rapidly through engineering ranks, reflecting strength in both architecture and delivery across backend and platform domains. Earlier roles as a co-founder and ML engineer in startups and research labs give him a blend of product intuition and deep technical expertise. Colleagues describe him wryly as a “washed up ML researcher,” which belies a track record of turning academic insight into reliable production software.
