About Sudeep Narsipur

I work with companies building AI and data center infrastructure - starting from their workloads and system architecture, then working across the full hardware stack to identify the right memory, storage, optics, and FPGA solutions to support what they\'re building. I represent Micron, Finisar, Lattice, & others, which together cover several of the critical components in a modern AI or cloud system. I help engineering and procurement leaders navigate highly dynamic semiconductor supply and pricing environments, making sure their design and sourcing strategies are built to keep production timelines on track, not scrambling when conditions shift. The companies I work with range from early-stage startups to mature enterprises, and the solutions I\'ve designed in are running in production across everything from global CDN networks spanning 200+ cities to large-scale AI compute clusters deployed across multiple countries.Every account in my portfolio was built from the ground up - from initial outreach through design-in, qualification, and production ramp. Several of the executives I work with today first engaged with me at previous companies, and have continued bringing me into their infrastructure decisions as they\'ve moved into new roles at AI labs, cloud providers, and infrastructure companies. I hold a Bachelors in Electrical Engineering and a Masters in Engineering Management, and am focused on helping scale infrastructure that drives real improvements in quality of life and sustainability.
