The Bitcasa Team
In 2011, Tony and Kevin brought their experience in data security and fraud detection systems used by major storage and credit card companies to found Bitcasa. Bitcasa revolutionizes how people use the cloud by providing them with infinite storage, best-in-class security via client-side encryption, and simple sync & share across multiple platforms.
We are currently assembling a core team of engineers and designers that are passionate about bringing infinite storage to everyone. If you would like to join us, please check out our jobs section!
Tony Ever since learning how to code at the tender age of 8, Tony has never looked back. With a solid background in security, encryption, and artificial intelligence, Tony was in charge of creating the modern real-time fraud detection and management systems for credit / debit card industries.

Kevin As a born systems and network architect, Kevin helped build a dial-up ISP to an enterprise level colocation & fiber-optics business, and then guided the scaling of Mozy's cloud architecture from 2 petabyte to over 90 petabytes.

Jikyu Jikyu is taking a break from his CS / art studies at Stanford to work at Bitcasa. He tries to make things look good and run smoothly. In his free time he likes to use his innate starcraft powers to cheese noobs on battle.net servers. Oh, and he was a 49ers fan before it was cool.

David David emigrated to the US from the British Isles, hence the funny accent. He brought with him a love of real ales and rugby that he willingly inflicts on anyone that will listen. Around the office he's the engineering Swiss army knife, dealing mainly with the web side and any unusual scripts people need.

Michael Michael is a Mizzou alumni with an engineering degree who started out working in the telecom industry. After stints on DSL switches and dabbling in mobile applications he decided cloud storage was the place to be. Oh, and he was a 49ers fan when Jikyu was just starting to finger paint.

Nick Nick knew he wanted to be a programmer since he was eight years old, and by middle school he was writing little games in HyperCard, Director, Flash, and the StarCraft map editor. Nick moved to Silicon Valley to get his BS in Computer Science and visit all the local programmer meetups and hacker spaces here. At Bitcasa he makes the web interface go.
|
Lee Harking from a time before CS degrees; a time that the Internet has forgot when 8 bit dinosaurs ruled the earth. A veteran programmer prior to joining Bitcasa, Lee has worked for some of the most influential companies and products in the software industry including Microsoft (Windows and Xbox Live) and Blizzard Entertainment (Starcraft 2 and World of Warcraft). Outside of the office you may find him behind the turntables at a local nightclub or talking with other hams on the radio.

Bob When I look into my magic eight ball, I see that the "Future is Cloudified" and everyone is using Bitcasa instead of hard drives. At work, I am the "Voice of the User", tester, buildmeister, and all around get-er-done guy. Outside of work, I am a reformed hacker, iPad programmer, and avid photographer.

Fiaz After honing his skills at the University of Michigan and McKinsey, Fiaz joined Bitcasa as our resident Excel and Powerpoint monkey. He spends his time at work cloudifying insane amounts of data and depleting the office candy supply. When not at work, Fiaz can usually be found in some bay area hole-in-the-wall, introducing random fellow diners to Infinite Storage.

Thang Thang (Tony) Nguyen started our as a mechanic fixing jet engines on aircraft such as the Helicopter UH-1H, Skyraider and F5 for the Air Force in South Vietnam. He graduated with a BSCS from Sacramento State University. Before Bitcasa, he worked for semiconductor and fiber optic network companies.

Brad Brad has been a professional programmer for more than 20 years, and a
recreational one for more than 30. His first computer was a Quest Super ELF, with just 256 bytes of RAM and a hexadecimal keypad for input. He loves C++11, Linux-based operating systems, spicy ethnic/regional cuisines, and the rock band Guided by Voices. He considers sudokus too easy if they can be solved without resorting to at least two levels of backtracking.
