Soumya Mukherjee — Co-Founder
I’m an engineering leader focused on building large-scale AI and ML platforms that power decision-critical systems across global organizations. Over the past decade, I’ve led teams across startups and enterprises as a founder, VP, director, and engineering manager—owning AI platform architecture, ML infrastructure, technical strategy, and end-to-end delivery. At Apple, I progressed from engineering manager roles into a Senior Principal position, where I drive AI/ML platform strategy, GenAI initiatives, and cross-team technical direction. My work centers on designing and scaling data platforms, ML platforms, and AI-native systems that unify data, models, and automation. I’ve led initiatives across demand forecasting, optimization, recommendation systems, explainable AI, and agentic AI, with a strong focus on production-grade ML systems, MLOps, and platform reliability. I’ve built and mentored high-performing engineering teams, established platform roadmaps, and partnered closely with product and business leaders to align AI strategy with measurable outcomes. My experience spans both early-stage startups—where I co-founded and scaled engineering organizations—and large enterprises operating at global scale. Technically, my background is in distributed systems, data engineering, ML infrastructure, cloud-native platforms, and end-to-end AI productization. I specialize in building scalable, reliable, and explainable AI systems, including GenAI, LLM, and agentic architectures, that integrate into core business workflows.
