Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolZack Elias is a Principal Product Manager and engineer with 11 years of experience building AI-driven products and scalable web systems from startup to enterprise. He combines hands-on software craft—React/Node/Postgres full‑stack work and CI/CD—with strategic product leadership, having co-founded FORA and led its AI research, architecture, and product teams. At FORA he architected LLM-based pipelines, RAG/vector embeddings, and agentic workflows that synthesized meetings and documents into decision-grade business narratives, and built custom tool-calling and reflection systems before those patterns were mainstream. Comfortable in both technical and stakeholder-facing roles, he’s delivered API-first products, SOC2-ready infrastructure, and realtime transcription/note-taking systems processing hundreds of meetings daily. Based in New York, Zack pairs analytical rigor from a Dartmouth Government BA with practical engineering training from Fullstack Academy, and is known for keeping teams aligned through intense R&D cycles with a pragmatic, humorous leadership style.
