Haya Odeh is the co-founder and VP of Design at Replit, the cloud-based AI-powered software development platform with over 50 million users. Born in Abu Dhabi and raised in Jordan, she studied graphic design and fine arts before building the visual identity and product design of one of the world's fastest-growing developer communities. She pioneered Replit's design shift from developer-only tooling to accessible, no-code software creation - a single word change from 'deploy' to 'publish' dramatically increased app creation rates. Alongside her husband and co-founder Amjad Masad, she navigated four Y Combinator rejections before being accepted in 2018 and raising over $872 million in total funding.
Replit is a browser-based software creation platform that has evolved from a collaborative cloud IDE into one of the leading agentic AI coding companies. Its Replit Agent lets anyone - engineer or not - go from a natural language prompt to a deployed, production-ready application. Headquartered in Foster City, California, the company now serves more than 40 million users and reached a $9B valuation in 2026.

Amjad Masad is the co-founder and CEO of Replit, the AI-powered cloud development platform that has grown to over 50 million users and reached a $9 billion valuation after its $400 million Series D in March 2026. Born in Amman, Jordan - where he learned to code at internet cafes by the 15-minute slot - Masad built Replit to remove the setup friction he experienced firsthand. After stints as founding engineer at Codecademy and on Facebook's JavaScript infrastructure team (where he helped build Babel.js and Jest), he co-founded Replit in 2016 with his wife Haya Odeh and brother Faris. Rejected by Y Combinator four times before acceptance, Masad now leads a platform where anyone can go from idea to deployed software without writing a line of code - believing there will be a billion software creators in the AI era.
