Meet Your Team

Shubham teaches AI-driven entrepreneurship at the University of Chicago’s Graduate Computer Science department, in Design, Build Launch, focusing on AI theory and real-world business application. His students learn about AI as they build functioning prototypes and deploy them before the quarter ends.

By day, he builds AI automation systems at Digital Realty, one of the largest data center operators in the world. He architects the same kind of intelligent workflows he teaches in this program from automated data pipelines to AI-powered decision support tools supporting enterprise teams. Amongst other roles, he currently advises numerous Hedge Funds and start-ups on their AI strategies.

This dual role, an operator and educator, is what shapes the Unlock Intelligence curriculum. Every module is built from systems Shubham has shipped in production. When your team learns to build an AI workflow, it’s based on one he shipped the week before.
