Rama Sreenivasan

Co-Founder And Chief Executive Officer

Rama is a daredevil, a people person and a scientist (UMD, MIT, Applied Materials) all rolled into one. He loves getting technical, but also tremendously enjoys empathizing with the customer through simple, clear communication, something he considers his forte. Nothing brings him more joy than getting his hands dirty to solve anyone’s pain point. When not alleviating a problem, Rama centers himself through his family, cooking, tennis, yoga, and climbing mountains with his wife. Rama lives and works out of San Jose, CA.
