Thothathri Srinivasan (who goes by "Tho") is the Head of AI and Engineering at Flip, one of Indonesia's largest consumer fintech companies. With over a decade of experience in Silicon Valley, Tho has built products and systems at some of the world's most recognizable tech companies including Groupon, Netflix, and Pinterest.
Originally from Bangalore, India, Tho began his career in electronics and software engineering before moving to the United States in 2010 to pursue his master's degree in computer science. His Silicon Valley journey started at Groupon in 2011, where he worked on merchant-facing products and learned the fundamentals of dynamic pricing and A/B testing. He then spent six years at Netflix Studio, building the infrastructure that powers content rights management, deals, and contracts - essentially everything from "pitch to play" in Netflix's content ecosystem.
After a stint at Pinterest working on shopping monetization, Tho briefly explored the AI startup space before relocating to Southeast Asia with his family. His transition to the region led him to Flip, where he now leads AI and engineering for Indonesia's growing fintech market.
Tho is also an alumnus of Insignia Ventures Academy's Certificate in Venture Capital program and became involved in angel investing through the XA Network, bringing his technical expertise to early-stage startup evaluation and mentorship.
