Siddharth Bellad is an AI builder and product thinker currently completing his Master's at Duke. With a background in process engineering and no CS degree, he taught himself to build with AI and in doing so, ran into every UX wall an AI product can create. He's built MVPs, shipped agents, competed in AI hackathons, and landed a product internship at an enterprise tech company. His perspective is from the inside: what builders actually trade away when moving fast, and what it costs the humans on the other end.

Jędrzej Michalczyk

Jędrzej Michalczyk

Jędrzej works on thrust vector control systems for sounding rockets at SpaceForest, where sophisticated math, challenging engineering, and rigorous software practices collide at launch. His path started in experimental physics at Poznań University of Technology — atomic clocks, ion traps, FPGAs — and led through software engineering to rockets.
He's been through the full arc — from successful flights to in-flight failures — and has the flight data and post-mortem analysis to prove it. But the biggest lesson wasn't in the code or the control loops. It was that even the best engineering can't outrun communication problems — Conway's Law isn't just theory when your rocket is heading off course.
