Senior🎓
Top SchoolSam C is a seasoned infrastructure and reliability leader with 11 years of experience building large-scale ML and cloud systems, currently supporting production inference and observability for ChatGPT at OpenAI. He has repeatedly led migrations and capacity transformations—moving fleets to IaaS/Kubernetes, integrating ML accelerators, and driving GA for core Ray libraries—improving reliability, performance, and security for enterprise AI customers. At Microsoft and Uber he architected distributed training and serving platforms, operationalized ML at scale, and drove utilization and cost-efficiency across thousands of machines. Sam combines program management rigor with deep technical fluency in distributed systems and observability, and his background as a two-time startup co-founder gives him a bias for pragmatic, product-focused execution. An unassuming thread across his career is turning high-risk infrastructure projects into repeatable operational playbooks that empower engineering teams to ship AI in production.
