Jeff Denworth is Co-founder of Vast Data, the AI data platform valued at $30 billion that powers roughly 90% of Neo cloud GPU deployments worldwide — including CoreWeave, Lambda, Crusoe, and Nscale. He co-founded Vast in 2016 with the conviction that deep learning would fundamentally reshape the relationship between computing and data, and that a new storage architecture was needed to meet that moment. Prior to Vast Data, Jeff worked at DDN, a high-performance computing storage company. Under his leadership, Vast has grown from an on-premises all-flash storage startup into a full-stack AI data platform with strategic partnerships at AWS, Google, and Microsoft, and backing from Nvidia.
