About this episode

My guest this week is David Sellinger, founder of Deep Sentinel.

David’s startup resume is remarkable and includes such highlights as:

• Being an early employee at Amazon working directly under Jeff Bezos and co-inventing Amazon Advertising which now generates BILLIONS of dollars in revenue


• Co-founding the real estate brokerage RedFin (now a multi-billion company)


• Revolutionizing the shopping experiences for major brands like Macy’s and Office Depot with his RichRelevance startup.


• Inventing the next HUGE advancement in home security with Deep Sentinel.

Deep Sentinel brings artificial intelligence to the home protection industry. With the Deep Sentinel the technology can identify threats in real time and once a threat is identified a live guard is engaged to notify and warn off the threat. The Deep Sentinel hardware is not just a camera but a sleek yet incredibly intimidating piece of technology that allows the Live Guards to engage while police are on their way.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• How being raised by two immigrant parents shaped his ambition and value of opportunities


• His learnings about organizational culture from the founding brothers of Dutch Bros. coffee.


• Lessons learned from Jeff Bezos as it relates to data-informed decision making


• About the next evolution in home security


• How important it is to speak honestly about your mental health
