Bio

Co-founder & CEO of Airbyte. I’ve been working in data since 2007. In 2011 I join LiveRamp where I was Head of Integrations and Director of Engineering. My team built and scaled over 1,000 data ingestion and distribution connectors to replicate hundreds of TB of data every day. After LiveRamp’s acquisition and later IPO (NYSE:RAMP), I joined rideOS as Director of Engineering, again deep in data. There, I realized that all companies are trying to solve the same problem. Airbyte was born.
