Justin Selig, Director at Efficient Computer

Today's guest is Justin Selig. Back in 2018, after hearing about the company from other graduate students, Selig joined Cerebras as an early member of their technical staff. Through 4 years with the company, he built much of their core kernel infra and the Cerebras SDK. He went on to join Eclipse Ventures, one of Cerebras' earliest backers, as an investor. From Eclipse, he joined Efficient Computer, where he works as a director, across product and BD today. Justin was early to the opportunity unfolding today in compute. He's had an incredible seat to watching this market evolve. We hope you enjoy the conversation. The Compute 100 is led by Brian Schechter and Gaby Lorenzi, compute-focused investors at Primary. Primary is a pre-seed and seed-stage venture firm that backs founders building across markets including compute, industrials, healthcare and vertical AI. With $1.6B AUM and a 60+ person operating team, Primary delivers unparalleled support to teams across recruiting, finance, GTM, and brand.
