Japjit Tulsi (Matterport) on 3D Digital Twins and Building Strong Engineering Teams

Japjit Tulsi is the CTO at Matterport, a company building a set of technologies to accelerate and simplify the creation of immersive 3D digital twins for real estate, project planning, hospitality, insurance, and more.

Prior to Matterport, Japjit gained more than 20 years of technical leadership experience, including as CTO at Carta, a tool for investors, founders, and employees to manage their equity. He was also VP of Engineering at eBay, leading engineering for new product development, including their AI-powered shopping assistant.

Earlier in his career, he helped build products at Google, including Google Analytics and YouTubes’ innovative content platform. He also held numerous senior leadership positions at Microsoft, along with entrepreneurial pursuits at StumbleUpon.

Japjit also serves as a board member at Grassroots Ecology, an environmental education and action nonprofit.

In this conversation, we get into the technology at Matterport and how Japjit and his team are leveraging machine learning to deliver greater insights with less data, essentially enabling you to “teleport” into a space.

But their vision is to do more than capture physical spaces. Matterport's Cortex AI and deep learning algorithms leverages the data to bring an unparalleled index of millions of spaces and new insights into the operational efficiency of buildings around the world.

We talk about the company, the technology, and the roadmap. And Japjit shares some great advice for building and maintaining strong engineering teams.
