About
Lee Edwards is a systems engineering polymath who moved from mechanical engineering at iRobot to software engineering roles including CTO at Teespring before becoming a VC, giving him an unusual technical background that he uses to evaluate and support founders tackling hard engineering problems. He focuses specifically on "hard software" like developer tools, software infrastructure, and applied AI/ML, with a thesis around "raising the floor" for engineers by turning yesterday's complex problems into simple APIs and SDKs that enable new products.
