Senior🎓
Top SchoolYousef Amar is a CTO and serial founder with 12 years of experience building AI-first products and scaling engineering teams from prototype to production. Based in London, he co-founded Krew and now leads Artanis, focusing on solving AI regression problems so models remain reliable in the wild. He combines deep research training (PhD in Computer Science) with hands-on engineering — shipping real-time ML pipelines (<30ms), OCR+LLM systems for nonprofits, and integrations with healthcare standards like HL7 FHIR. A pragmatic systems builder, he’s led teams of 24 engineers, implemented robust CI/CD and payment/donation infrastructures, and contributed to open-source physics tooling that improved stability in Three.js physics simulations. Colleagues describe him as a founder who bridges academic rigor and product velocity, often turning short pilots into subscription revenue and strategic partnerships.

Back-end DeveloperContributions:7 commits, 1 issue in 10 days
Contributions summary:Yousef primarily focused on improving the stability and correctness of the physics engine. They fixed a bug that caused crashes when removing objects. The user also optimized collision handling and ensured the validity of object "touches" arrays, which led to more reliable event dispatch. These changes involved modifying core collision detection logic and updating the internal state of physics objects within the engine.
