Growth & GTM Engineer @Overlap AI (YC S24) | Building Systems That Scale | ex-AWS
About
I'm a Growth & GTM Engineer focused on removing friction from our growth engine. I build automation systems that let us scale without scaling headcount, turning manual processes like lead generation, content production, and sales workflows into reliable, repeatable systems. When operations move faster, growth moves faster. Overlap AI helps creators and media companies turn long-form video into short-form clips at scale, then actually ship them across every platform. We're building AI agents that can understand, search, and edit video like a human editor would, but in minutes, not hours. We work with teams like iHeartMedia, Vox, The Volume, Cumulus, and more. These are companies producing hundreds of hours of content per week, and our AI helps them turn every episode into 30+ social-ready clips automatically. The vision: We're not just clipping videos. We're building the operating system for video content creation, starting with clips, but extending to full video production assistance. Think: AI that helps YouTubers select B-roll, optimize pacing, and edit raw footage into polished videos.
