Prerit Oberai

I'm currently the co-founder and cto of Prototyping.io (YC P26), an AI-driven manufacturing platform that analyzes CAD designs for manufacturability and automates production workflows, so engineers get high-quality parts faster and at lower costs.

Before this, I was a Founding Engineer at an early-stage startup building patient navigation services for the elderly, and spent a few years at Microsoft on the Excel and Office Security teams. Earlier still: a PhD start at UIUC in network and storage systems (left after a year and a half), and undergrad + masters in EECS at CU Boulder. What ties it together is curiosity, I like hard problems in whatever domain I land in.

Outside of work I'm always excited to meet new people, play basketball and soccer, run, and read a lot of biographies (always taking recs). If you want to reach out, my inbox is open, or grab time on my calendar.
