Hi all, I’m Yuriy, founder of Puma.tech. Previously worked as software engineer & developer advocate at Cloudant (YC S08, Acq. by IBM), Meteor (YC S11), Parse (YC S11, Acq. by Meta), and explored Ai/ML (computer vision for self-driving cars) before diving deep into crypto.
Puma Browser is focused on making LLMs easy to use on your mobile phone. Private by design.
Puma.network is an infrastructure layer focused on creating open LLMs by rewarding contributions of compute, feedback (RLHF) and data.
We’ve raised Angel and Pre-Seed Rounds from some of the best builders in crypto and Ai: Illia Polosukhin (NEAR Protocol), Sridhar Ramaswamy (Snowflake CEO, Neeva, Greylock), Jason Warner (ex-GitHub CTO), Chris Larsen (founder of Ripple), Don Ho (Orange DAO, Quantstamp), Protocol Labs, Shima, SBI, Fenbushi, HashKey and more.
- We value Optimism, Kindness, Curiosity, Speed and Grit.
- Only two recurring weekly meetings to maximize state of flow: Monday all-hands, Friday Demos.
- Careful with growth and never had to do layoffs.
- Capital efficient with 3+ years of runway.
Open Roles: Eng (iOS, Android, Ai/ML, Browser Extensions), Head of Memes & Growth; Internships: Eng, Design, Growth
