Office Hours: I founded Scale AI and Backend Capital. I'm Lucy Guo.Featured
Hi everyone! I’m Lucy Guo, founder and general partner of Backend Capital, an early stage fund focused on backing brilliant engineers.Previously, I co-founded Scale AI (Y Combinator S16), which delivers high quality training data for AI applications. And before that, I was a product designer at Quora and Snapchat. I studied computer science and human computer interaction from Carnegie Mellon but dropped out to pursue the Thiel Fellowship. For fun, I work on random projects (that have been used by 10M+ people around the world), skydive, workout (too much) at Barry’s Bootcamp, and ride electric longboards.Ask me about founding startups, product design, investing, and more!
