The industry's most effective community of engineers

Factored was founded in 2019 in Palo Alto, California, by Israel Niezen and a team of experienced engineers, educators, and AI researchers.

With our co-founding advisor, Dr. Andrew Ng, we set out to address the significant shortage of qualified AI, machine learning and data engineers.
