Ashwin Ramaswami

I am currently the CTO and Co-founder at Corridor.

In 2024, I ran for Georgia State Senate in my hometown of Johns Creek (NYT). From 2020-2023, I worked at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on election security, where we built Crossfeed to help states and counties secure critical infrastructure and elections websites.

I've long been an open source software developer, maintaining react-jsonschema-form (with many other people's help!) since 2019. From 2021-2023, I ran a grants program at Schmidt Futures to support OSS security measures in the wake of Log4Shell. We supported Ecosyste.ms, the Atlantic Council, OTF's FOSS Sustainability Fund, and D//F. I was also a research contributor at the Linux Foundation and the OpenSSF.

I hold a B.S. in computer science from Stanford University and a J.D. from Georgetown University Law Center. At Stanford, I was the first CTO of the Stanford Daily; organized TreeHacks; and worked on research projects through CodaLab, The Grand Tour Project, Stanford Internet Observatory, Immigration Policy Lab, and CRFM. I built software and infrastructure at early stage startups including Skiff, Nooks, Pulsar, Eventive, Maple Finance, and Caldera. Later, I worked at Sequoia Capital as a tech law and policy fellow in Washington, D.C.

At Georgetown, I helped start the Judicial Innovation Fellowship; helped establish an endowment for Dharmic Life; and worked at the Wikimedia Foundation and ICAP. In 2023, I worked in the Georgia Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division through an ABA Steiger Fellowship.

Before my undergraduate studies, I spent much time helping my high school build one of the top quizbowl teams in the country. I also attended Georgia Tech for a year through Georgia's excellent Dual Enrollment program.

I'm also an editor at Reboot! You can reach me at ashwin@corridor.dev or aramaswamis@gmail.com.
