I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science, and for the last 2 years, my work is related to the optimization of data-intensive workloads (Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Genomics) and their acceleration with FPGAs. Before starting this job, I gathered more than 8 years of valuable experience in industry and academia in the area of hardware design (FPGAs) and processor microarchitecture. I am very passionate about technology, especially about Machine Learning, Algorithms and Computer Science in general, and I use every opportunity to push further the boundary of my knowledge in these fields.
