Cows, Tech Careers, Working at Microsoft, and Even More About Cows, with Saad Ansari
A Fitbit for cows!? π
Before joining Databricks, Saad Ansari spent six years building sensors that tracked how dairy cows moved, ate, and rested so farmers could tell when a cow was fertile or unwell. Later, he shifted from barns to big data, helping developers at Databricks orchestrate their workflows and manage data more reliably.
In this episode, Saad talks about what startup life taught him about scaling developer tools, how data provenance shapes trust in the GenAI era, and why physics behaves differently when your sensor sits on a 1,500-pound body of water. Itβs a funny, surprisingly deep story about moving from AI for animals to AI for everyone.
