Jerry Liu is the co-founder and chief executive of LlamaIndex. He graduated summa cum laude from Princeton in 2017 with a BSE in computer science and a certificate in finance, writing a senior thesis on 3D shape manipulation with GANs under Thomas Funkhouser, and published research on stereo, LiDAR and video compression at ICCV, ECCV, CVPR and NeurIPS. Before LlamaIndex he was a machine learning engineer at Quora, an Uber AI resident and then a research scientist at Uber ATG, and a machine learning engineering manager at Robust Intelligence. In November 2022 he published to GitHub the indexing project that became LlamaIndex, an open-source framework for connecting language models to private data. With Simon Suo he built a company around it, announcing an $8.5 million seed round led by Greylock in June 2023 and a $19 million Series A led by Norwest in March 2025. The company now sells document parsing and agent tooling.
