Profile

Chief Technology Officer · Redrob

Teams in Seoul, India, and the US

$6.8M ARR (Nov 2025) · $14M raised

• Shipped Redrob as a low-cost LLM and careers platform for emerging markets: Chat, Jobs, Skills, and Signal under one brand, free campus access under a fixed per-student cost ceiling, and $6.8M ARR (Nov 2025) with 10M+ user signups across 500 universities in India.
• Built the engineering organization from 0 to 50+ across Seoul, India, and the US: hiring bar, review process, and regional ownership (India on-call for Indic text and Jobs; Seoul for model and infra; US for enterprise Console), while still writing the production code I ship.
• Owned model and cost constraints end to end: routed Indic text (Console), GEPA eval harness (Apache-2.0), self-hosted Image and Tune paths, and Studio’s dual LLM/VLM safety gate (99.92% accuracy, 100% recall on 6,000 prompts).
