Ryan Chow

I'm a cofounder of Metalware, a firmware cybersecurity company backed by $8M from Crosspoint, Haystack, Y Combinator, and others. Before that, I worked at SpaceX on Falcon and Starlink.

I support founders with small angel checks in cool startups like Ligo Biosciences and Astro Mechanica.

Outside of work, I'm usually training for one big challenge per year. Some recent examples are a 50-mile ultramarathon and an Ironman 70.3. I also enjoy snowboarding and traveling.

I grew up in Maryland and currently live in SF.
