Description
Abe Murray is a visionary founder, accomplished builder, and distinguished product engineering lead with a remarkable track record in the tech industry. Currently serving as a General Partner at AlleyCorp Robotics, Abe leverages his expertise to drive innovation and excellence in the field of robotics and technology.
Abe was previously a product and engineering leader at Alphabet. He launched Play Books and Magazines at Android, delivered $XXXM in business while building the Verily Life Science product teams and Boston office, and shipped AI /ML/computer vision across Google while building the Google Research product team. Before Google, he built a Web 2.0 startup and worked on UAVs in the defense industry.
Abe has some shiny degrees (HBS MBA, WPI MS EE, URI BS Comp Eng) but says he learned the most when he dropped out of high school to run fishing boats and factory lines in the family aquaculture business.
In his free time, Abe enjoys being a parent and partner, building all kinds of things with his kids, and staying as healthy as he's able.
