Top SchoolVarun Sharma is a founder and seasoned full‑stack engineer with 10 years of experience building data‑driven platforms and developer tools, most recently founding a stealth AI startup after leading a multi-channel communications engine at Toast. He co‑founded Octostar, helped raise €5M, and architected an ontology‑based investigative intelligence platform with agentic AI, RAG on knowledge graphs, and microfrontend SDKs published to NPM and PyPI.

Based in Leinster, Ireland, he combines startup leadership with a track record of reducing operational friction (e.g., cutting support tickets via contextual notifications) and delivering scalable investigative and workflow tooling.
