StrictlyVC San Francisco, which will kick off this year’s events lineup for TechCrunch on April 30 at the Sentro Filipino Cultural Center, is getting a new addition to its increasingly stacked roster of speakers. Uber CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga will join us to discuss, you guessed it, operating at scale in the age of AI. You’ll need to act swiftly to grab a ticket, though, for what’s becoming the go-to event within the SF startup scene next week. It’s an ideal one-stop shop for any founder or investor looking to widen their networks, deepen community ties, and learn from what’s now a wildly deep roster of speakers. Naga’s conversation with TechCrunch editor-in-chief Connie Loizos will cover that wide purview, exploring what it’s taken to build the many complex, interwoven systems amid the AI revolution on one of the most widely used services on the planet. And his work with Uber runs deep, having been with the company since 2015, long preceding the AI boom that is refining what CTOs have to focus on. And it’s not all AI. Naga has had a particular focus on developing earnings systems for drivers and couriers within Uber’s network, and he had previously played a key role in building LinkedIn’s early products and infrastructure that set it up to be the mainstay of professional life it is today.
