Before Conductor, Charlie worked as a quantitative researcher at a hedge fund, and led growth at Replicate where he created apps that were used by millions. One time he accidentally struck fear into the heart of Hollywood.
Charlie started Conductor with Jackson in the summer of 2024 to build the best interface for managing your AIs, eat lots of ice cream, and do the best work of our lives.
Jackson first learned to code in Microsoft Visual Basic 2005, and he's been hooked ever since. Before starting Conductor, he built ML infrastructure at Netflix, researched automated negotiating agents at Brown, and, with Charlie, built Shindig, the first, best, and only way to host a party from the command line. In his free time he enjoys reading Garner's Modern English Usage.
Previously, Matt led DevRel at Replit as it grew from an online IDE into one of the defining AI-native platforms. Matt specializes in making deeply technical ideas approachable. His work on AI, developer workflows, and product has reached millions across the industry through courses and partnerships with LinkedIn, O'Reilly, and DeepLearningAI.
At Conductor, he leads Developer Experience, helping developers understand, trust, and push the limits of AI-native software. Outside work, he's usually lifting weights, riding motorcycles, or obsessing over camera gear and typography.
Lewis worked at YC. Before that he was at Pave. He likes penguins.
Sam wore many hats before donning his Conductor cap. He (literally) built a craft brewery in Seattle before serving as Chief of Staff at a $10B RIA. He then took a brief detour to get his MBA at MIT Sloan, before spending the next four years as a VC. He also moonlights as one of the top coaches in the sport of Ultimate Frisbee (he met Charlie and Jackson playing Ultimate at Brown). At Conductor, Sam leads all things operations, ensuring there is always plenty of yogurt in the fridge.
