Devon Peroutky

10 years of experience building ML and distributed systems at world class startups.

Most recently I designed the full post-training pipeline and infrastructure behind DeepHat V1, an open-source 7B cybersecurity LLM that is the smallest model ever to score 5% on Cybench, and beat GPT-4o-mini on code editing tasks despite being significantly smaller.

Along time ago, I founded Landria, an A.I. search and collaboration tool for corporate knowledge bases acquired by Brex in 2020. At Brex, I ran strategy and roadmaps across 5 developer platform teams.

I led an engineering team at Valon where we turned a manual mortgage onboarding process into automated DAG pipelines that scaled throughput 20x and cut errors by >90%.

On the side, I built Happy Accidents, a generative AI image app that hit 150k+ users purely through word of mouth, and earlier in my career I built Twilio's core transaction streaming pipeline powering their billing and compliance systems.
