About Darin Chambers
I build what\'s next on rock-solid foundations.With 30+ years in technology, I specialize in turning visionary concepts into dependable, real-world solutions. My work lives at the bridge between \"what\'s possible\" and \"what\'s practical\" — from cutting-edge AI/ML applications to the infrastructure that powers critical business operations.What I\'m building now:I run an independent AI lab (NVIDIA DGX Spark) and ship open source projects using AI-augmented development workflows. Recent work includes ClearSchema (a DSL that compiles to JSON Schema/OpenAPI), a zero-dependency SVG graph engine built concept-to-production in one week, and an interactive terminal portfolio at darinchambers.com.What I\'ve built before:• 4 patents in distributed video systems and vehicle imaging• Scaled teams from 10 to 350+ engineers• Led Kubernetes platform adoption across 130+ internal products• Helped take a startup from Series C to IPO ($3B+ valuation)• Architected video infrastructure scaling from 30 to sourcesI believe the best engineers ship. Let\'s build something.
