Hi there, I'm Jamsheed! 👋

I'm a UC Berkeley Computer Science alumnus, and I'm currently working as Founding Engineer at Layerup (YC S22). I also do research at the Berkeley Netsys Lab.

In my spare time, I help other students start their own ventures at Hack+.

I'm also a hackathon enthusiast; I'm currently working on Pinnacle, the Olympics of Hackathons. In the past, I've led Los Altos Hacks and CodeDay Bay Area, inspiring students to pursue careers in STEM.

In the past, I've worked at Twitter, Apple, Stanford, Udacity, and Gauss Surgical (acq'd by Stryker), doing engineering, project management, and research.

I've also been practicing Taekwondo for over 15 years, holding a 5th degree black belt. I'm a certified International Referee under World Taekwondo, where I am fortunate to be able to referee tournaments across the globe. Outside of refereeing, I am also a coach for the UC Berkeley collegiate Taekwondo team, self-defense instructor for PE courses at UC Berkeley, and a visiting instructor at my Taekwondo alma mater, Tiger Martial Arts. To find out more about my Taekwondo experience, check out my Taekwondo resume.

You can find out more about my specific positions and accomplishments on my LinkedIn or on my resume.
