Hadley Harris

Hadley has done a little bit of everything on the path to co-founding Eniac. Starting as an engineer and development team lead at Pegasystems, he later took on roles as a product manager at Microsoft and strategist at Samsung, where it became clear that big companies were not for him.

In 2007 he was very fortunate to join a very talented AI team out of MIT at Vlingo where he ran a few aspects of the business across product, strategy and marketing until it was sold to Nuance for $225M. He rolled his experience building a successful startup into Thumb whereas CBO he helped the real-time recommendation app reach user engagement levels second only to Facebook before being acquired.

Hadley grew up in downtown Boston, which shaped his lifelong love of science, old school hip-hop and the New England Patriots. Outside the office Hadley enjoys jogging, meditating, mixing music, beating Nihal in tennis and traveling the world with his wife.

Hadley is passionate about improving the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, which stems from his close relationship with his brother Traves. He is a Board Director for Cardinal Cushing Centers, which serves adults and children with intellectual disabilities across 4 campuses in Massachusetts.

Hadley is still paying off student loans for his MBA from Wharton and bachelors in Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania.
