Elad Gil — most recently co-founder of Color Genomics, previously co-founder and CEO of Mixer Labs, which was acquired by Twitter. He was a VP at Twitter focusing on scaling the company from 90 to 1500 people.
Previously at Google he started their mobile team, and worked on AdSense.
He is also flat out one of the best angel investors/advisors in the startup community. His portfolio includes Airbnb, Airtable, Anduril, Brex, Checkr, Coinbase, Flexport, Gitlab, Gusto, Instacart, Opendoor, PagerDuty, Pinterest, Samsara, Square, Stripe, and Wish.
He has a kind of sight that makes the nonobvious appear obvious.
