Gaurav Seth: Leading in the AI World - Episode 402
Today I’ve have Gaurav Seth with us — he’s a product executive at Microsoft working on fundamentally redefining how software gets built and scaled. He’s been bringing agentic AI into every stage of the develop‑deploy‑operate cycle, both for Microsoft’s internal engineering teams and for developers building on the platform. He’s hands-on building AI agents into GitHub Copilot and Visual Studio, working on evaluation systems that improve model quality, and shaping core platforms that power Azure, Microsoft 365, Windows, Xbox, and LinkedIn. Right now, he’s focused on some of the hardest problems in the industry — what it looks like to move from manual to AI-driven development, how to measure and improve agent performance at scale, how to make massive codebases understandable to LLMs, and what the future of developer workflows looks like in an agent-first world. Before this, he helped lead some major shifts — from Edge’s move to Chromium, to scaling TypeScript into one of the most widely used languages in the world, to evolving Visual Studio’s business model and growing .NET in a crowded market. He operates end-to-end — from product strategy and engineering to go-to-market, partnerships, and enterprise adoption — and has a unique ability to connect deep technical innovation with real-world impact.
