Chief Technology Officer
David Vasandani is a technology and engineering leader with deep experience building the systems companies run on. He has led modernization efforts end to end — rebuilding how software gets released so teams could ship hundreds of updates a month instead of one a week, with less risk and less downtime, while cutting cloud costs by more than 40%.
He works across the full range of the problem, from cloud platforms to the hardware sitting in stores and restaurants, and now focuses on applied AI — building the infrastructure that lets AI agents do real work safely inside a business.
Based in Los Angeles, he is a husband and father of two who spends his off-hours on home projects, arthouse cinema, and building software that makes both work and family life run a little more smoothly.
