S6 Bonus: From AWS S3 to Multimodal AI: Engineering the Search-for-Everything Engine with Marin Smiljanic of Omnisearch
from Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders · host Noah Labhart - Startup Founder & CTO
Marin Smiljanic was born and raised in Croatia. He attended a local math school, which actually got him into tech. Post attending college, his first experiences of the industry were through internships and startup involvement. Outside of tech, he likes to hike, swim, winter sports, being outdoors, etc. - and he lives in Vancouver now, which gives him great access to all of the above. He says the main difference between Vancouver and Croatia comes down to food. Croatia contains a bit more traditional cuisine - seafood close to the water, and meat based dishes inland.During his Amazon years, Marin was hitting a few problems on a regular basis, having to sift through dense training content on a daily basis. And the training format was all over the map - video, audio, text, etc. After brainstorming with his now cofounder, they decided to build an MVP, starting with an API.This is the creation story of Omnisearch.SponsorsImmediateOrbitPostmarkStytchVerb DataWebapp.ioLinksWebsite: https://omnisearch.ai/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marin-smiljanicOur Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.
