Many Reddit employees have been with the company for a long time, but few as long as Reddit’s Chief Technology Officer, Chris Slowe. Chris joined Reddit in 2005 as our founding engineer. And though he departed the company in 2010, he returned as CTO in 2017. Since then, he’s been behind some of Reddit’s biggest transformations and growth spurts, both in site traffic and in the number of employees at the company.

In this episode, you’ll hear Chris share some old Reddit stories, what he’s excited about at the company today, the impact of generative AI, and what sci-fi books he and his son are reading.
