We are not building for the next product cycle. We are building for the next century. Everything we do is designed to compound — in knowledge, in capability, and in impact.
Established Aerayan as a deep technology company at the intersection of AI, aerospace, quantum computing, and life sciences. Began building Luminary AI, the company's foundation model platform.
Led development of multi-modal AI systems and large-scale inference infrastructure. Pioneered techniques in reinforcement learning and autonomous reasoning systems for scientific applications.
Worked at the frontier of AI and scientific computing, building systems that process petabyte-scale genomic datasets and high-performance simulation workloads.
Started in software engineering with a focus on distributed systems and machine learning infrastructure. Became obsessed with applying computing to science's hardest problems.
Short-term optimization is the enemy of profound technology. Every system we build is designed to compound in value over 10, 20, 50 years.
Engineering without science is craft. We root every technical decision in first principles and empirical validation — not trends or convention.
The systems that matter most — spacecraft, genomic platforms, AI models — cannot fail. We build with a six-sigma mentality from day one.
The problems we work on don't have known solutions. That's the point. Genuine technological progress requires attacking what no one else will.
