yale applied math grad (2013) ceo of startup (2011-2017) openai director then promoted to openai vp (2017-2020) google director (2020)

this is 7 years out of undergrad

he left google director position (7 digits/year btw) to become founder ceo of adept ai, which is now valued at $1 billion

this guy is more impressive in terms of career progression (not research)
