Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlbert Coma is a Technical Lead based in Barcelona with nine years of software experience and a strong focus on Python-driven backend systems and customer-centered product development. He has transitioned from quantum research and ML roles at ETH Zürich, Xanadu and Qilimanjaro into leadership and platform engineering positions at Criteo and Preply, bridging deep research experience with production-grade software delivery. Known for shipping clean, well-tested code, he has led integrations and open-source contributions (notably rapid impact on PennyLane) and scaled niche research prototypes into deployed lab and product systems. Curious and pragmatic, he pairs a formal MSc in Quantum Engineering with hands-on work in AI, image analysis and DevOps, and brings an atypical blend of experimental rigor and product sensibility to team leadership. Outside work he stays sharp through sports, guitar and continuous learning.
