Sushant Tripathy is a Co-founder and CTO based in the San Francisco Bay Area with 11 years of experience building deployable distributed machine learning systems and production data pipelines. He blends a strong algorithm and ML research background from six years as a Research Scientist at Google with hands-on engineering in Python and C/C++, plus SQL and NoSQL expertise across Teradata, Hadoop, MongoDB and Cassandra. His work spans end-to-end ML—from designing algorithms and embeddings for resume/job matching to scaling models via H2O over Hadoop and Gearman-based production pipelines. A former PhD scientist who transitioned from bio-nanotechnology and genomics to applied ML, he brings uncommon depth in experimental design and quantitative analysis to engineering problems. As a repeat technical founder and early-stage CTO, he pairs product-minded leadership with practical deployment experience in stealth startups and consumer-facing AI products. Colleagues would note his rare combination of bench-science rigor and large-scale ML systems engineering.
