Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAleksandar Milicevic is a founding engineer and MIT PhD who brings 19 years of experience building developer-facing infrastructure and verification-aware tools. He led core pieces of a distributed, cacheable build system at Microsoft—designing process virtualization, sandboxing, and multi-phase remote caching—and now applies that systems expertise at Cubist. His research blends declarative specifications, program verification, and synthesis (notably contributing to the Dafny verifier), enabling him to bridge formal methods and production engineering. Based in San Diego, he thrives on making robust, hard-to-reach correctness guarantees practical for everyday software development, and frequently surfaces research ideas in large-scale build and execution environments.

Contributions summary:Aleksandar primarily worked on the Dafny language verification-aware programming language. Their contributions included modifications to the grammar, adding utility methods for AST constructors, and experimenting with the generation of a Valid() function, also implemented examples such as "List example with Jennisys". They also refactored the analyzer code for more efficient Dafny file generation and worked on reading models from a BVD model file and code generation based on synthesis solution with field assignments.
