Siamak graduated from Sharif University in computer science and earned a master’s from Amir Kabir University. He joined Dejima in 1999, co-founded by his brother Babak Hodjat, and was part of the team that created Siri with Adam Cheyer. Siri was later acquired by Apple during the Steve Jobs era. Siamak also contributed to Viv Labs, the AI assistant for Samsung, and co-founded Game Planner, which was acquired by Airbnb.  Now, he is the Director of AI Experience at Airbnb.
