Summary
Adrià Lanau is a Staff Applied Scientist based in Barcelona with a decade of hands-on experience bridging research and product in computer vision, deep learning and ML systems. He has led AI initiatives across startups and industry leaders—founding a startup, serving as CTO, and driving awarded projects for clients like Eurofighter—proving an ability to take SOTA research into production. His background blends top academic performance in Computer Science and a master's in Computer Vision with continuous self-directed upskilling (Reinforcement Learning, Data Engineering, Autonomous Vehicles nanodegrees). Known for building complex pipelines spanning vision, NLP, generative models and radiofrequency, he pairs optimization expertise (differentiable and non-differentiable) with practical engineering. Colleagues value him as a creative problem-solver who scales teams and systems, not just models. An understated strength: he consistently converts academic rigor into industrial impact across diverse domains.
