About the guest
Khalid Muaydh has become the VP of Engineering at Fabric after over seven years of working for Amazon as a Software Engineer Leader. Impressive! That experience has definitely helped him create the headless commerce leader - Fabric, which has recently raised $140M in Series C funding! It gives them the Unicorn status - a private company valued at or over $1 billion. Within a year, Fabric has grown from 50 to 350 employees and raised a total of over $250M from top-tier VCs.
Before Fabric, he was also the Co-Founder & VP of Engineering at Veeve, a system of contactless grocery shopping that uses machine learning, sensor fusion, computer vision, and artificial intelligence to enable large scale (100K SKUs) visual recognition.
