Quote

I've been consistently impressed with their passion for building product and their commitment to understand the "why's" and not just the "what's". It's a rare trait to find and even more impactful coupled with their deep technical talent.

Vahagn Grigoryan

CTO

San Francisco, CA

Vahagn is an engineer who believes the best way to show vision is through action—building technology that actually scales and solves problems. Early on, as a top-performing university student, Vahagn's passion for math and physics helped him represent his school at the National Math Olympiads. Post-grad, he had the foresight to channel his continued passion into the exploration of Artificial Intelligence while it was still a niche academic pursuit (rather than tech's favorite buzzword). Later, as the founding engineer of a startup recognized by both Microsoft and the government, Vahagn made clear he knows how to take smart ideas and turn them into scalable, award-winning products.
