Benyamin Damircheli

Currently, I am building Senra, an AI employee for busy individuals and small businesses. Previously, I interned at Amazon Web Services (AWS), where I worked on infrastructure for AWS Step Functions.

I'm a deeply technical person and I enjoy building, learning, and breaking things. I care about understanding how things work and designing novel solutions to the problems I can't stop thinking about. Right now, I'm most interested in how AI will shape the future of the workplace.
