• CEO of SID.ai – the last job I ever plan to hold.
• Previously, researcher at ETH Zürich.

I spend most of my time working on SID.ai – a research lab for search, with offices in San Francisco and Zürich. We're backed by Y Combinator, Canaan, Rebel, and General Catalyst, as well as researchers from Anthropic, DeepMind, OpenAI, MIT, Cognition, Cursor, Applied Compute, Prime Intellect, Standard Intelligence, and Jeff Dean. I have an X account – an occupational hazard. A message there is the best way to reach me. I might share my thoughts here in the future, but currently, I just want to park the domain.
