About me

Hi, there. I'm Nick Bradford. I'm currently in NYC and SF, working on Cursor.

Previously, I was co-founder/CTO of Ellipsis (YC W24), founding AI engineer at Grit, ML resident at Redwood Research, engineering manager at Hyperscience, and investment engineer at Bridgewater.

I believe in taking only what rest is needed to maximize productivity (see the Utopian Oath).

I am a Venture Partner at Pioneer Fund, and also occasionally make (small) personal angel investments, feel free to get in touch.

Outside of work, I have been writing a satirical epic fantasy novel Spellcraft as a Service since 2012, and am currently on my third (final?) rewrite. You might also enjoy my short story "Flexitarian 2048", tech blog, house playlist, music, and resources on tech careers and NYC.
