London, England, United Kingdom
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlessio Quaglino is a Senior Research Engineer at DeepMind with a PhD in Mathematics and a strong track record building physics-driven simulation libraries and ML systems for industry. He blends rigorous mathematical modeling and uncertainty quantification with practical engineering—having developed MuJoCo components, optimized Formula 1 suspension models at McLaren, and shipped a SaaS deep-learning controller for chemical processes. Alessio moves fluidly between C++ performance engineering (collision and FE solvers) and Python research tooling for large-scale simulations, and has led and mentored early-career researchers while administering graduate programs. His work sits at the intersection of simulation, optimization, and data-driven automation, with the uncommon combination of hands-on race-car dynamics experience and formal UQ expertise. Based in London, he brings both academic depth and product-focused delivery to complex, real-time physical systems.
