Apollo Jain

Software Engineer
Cape

I am a hobbyist author based out of New York City. My writing interests lie at the convergence of government, economics, climate, technology, and South Asian affairs.

By day, I work as a Software Engineer at Cape, a privacy-focused mobile carrier being built from the ground up.

I initially worked as an early employee at Anduril Industries, where I was the first engineer on several prototypes, most notably the company's Counter-Drone Tower. Additionally, I worked at an R&D contractor called STR, where I worked on projects for several government customers. including DARPA and many others. I was also Founding Engineer at Kaizen Labs, where we built parks and recreation software for cities around the country.

I studied EECS at UC Berkeley, where I co-founded and served as Vice President of Robotics at Berkeley, served as CTO of the ASUC , Berkeley's student government, and researched at both UCSF Bove Lab and the Renewable and Appropriate Energy Laboratory.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, mentoring high school kids, running, hiking, skiing, practicing guitar, cooking new recipes, and volunteering. Please feel to reach out to me if you would like to grab coffee and chat!
