Vetted Founders

“Operator with consulting and startup experience who has led founder-level, zero-to-one initiatives across highly complex domains—from conceiving and launching an $80M, 80m maritime disaster-response vessel for Global Support & Development (Sergey Brin’s org) to acting as a cross-functional leader at Windfall Bio spanning regulatory, GTM, partnerships, and R&D. At Deloitte, owned the Omnia ESG software roadmap and drove >30% faster delivery through standardization/automation, and was tapped to train other managers on their operating cadence system.”

“Built and deployed an AI receptionist product for field-service businesses (HVAC/electrician), including real-time Jobber scheduling integrations and Twilio-based calling. Combines hands-on customer/operator shadowing with strong production engineering (queueing to handle API limits, rigorous testing/mocking, mirrored prod environment) and cross-layer troubleshooting, driving user adoption through review/override workflows.”

“Partnerships/integrations leader with experience running multiple simultaneous ISV launches and executive-level cross-functional cadences. Created a CEO-backed, data-driven partner/integration prioritization scorecard that helped increase partnership revenue 13.5x, and has operated in high-confidentiality environments supporting major global product launches (Samsung).”

“Built an AI-powered restaurant menu rewriting app that generates diet-constrained menus from photos, with a backend designed around bounded contexts and a lightweight CQRS approach. Demonstrates strong multi-tenant PostgreSQL design (RLS, tenant-scoped queries) and performance tuning (partitioning, keyset pagination, composite/partial indexes), plus AI workflow orchestration using Redis/BullMQ and Vercel AI SDK with structured outputs and evals; reduced p95 latency ~35–50% via racing LLM requests and caching.”

“Full-stack, design-minded developer who builds interactive, motion-forward experiences and translates complex creative coding (Three.js/p5.js/GLSL) into accessible UI for non-technical clients. Delivered an end-to-end manufacturing quality control image system for ChargePoint (React dashboard + AWS) and has hands-on field research experience from Hyundai EV user interviews; currently leading development of a virtual gallery for Creative Coding NYC.”

“Founder of Build from Scratch and GreenTech Business ecosystems focused on sustainable/low-carbon innovation; raised $150K friends-and-family and built a global platform of 140 companies across 20 countries. Organized three angel funds and invested in LATAM-first recycling and waste-tracking ventures (including lithium-ion battery recycling with a patent), leveraging a corporate finance and investor relations background to mentor and support founders.”
