Summary
Alexander Koumis is a Senior Software Engineer in San Francisco with 11 years of experience building production CV and speech systems. At Google he designs distributed ML pipelines for AR features like 3D reconstruction and eye tracking, and previously optimized on-device C++ speech recognition for Pixel, Gboard, Android Auto, and Nest. His background blends academic rigor (MS in Computer Science, USC) with hands-on robotics and photogrammetry work—implementing point-cloud human recognition and UAV ground-control point detection using OpenCV and PCL. Comfortable across C++, Python, and distributed systems, he has a track record of reducing latency and operationalizing models for constrained devices. Colleagues would note his mix of research-oriented problem solving and pragmatic release engineering that ships complex ML features at scale.
