I'd, uh, graduated with a physics degree, and this was one of the areas that was like: "Hey, we want people with that background." [chuckles] And uh, turns out it was an awesome area to jump into.

You got to apply first principles, but then also build systems that had impact.

And so spent some time developing... basically taking software that was written at a high level and bringing it down to low-level hardware systems.

And the reason being was, was a big programming nerd, but also kind of understood the math, and it was this sweet spot of translating software to hardware.

So I got to work on some cool AI algorithms on the F-35, and that kind of inspired me to do-
