Bangladeshi-German-American software engineer and co-founder of YouTube, best known for uploading the first YouTube video ('Me at the zoo') and later as an investor through Youniversity Ventures.
Co-created YouTube's initial architecture and the concept of user-uploaded web video at scale, then stepped back from operations to pursue investing and graduate studies — making him the least prominent but technically foundational co-founder.
