Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexandra Chronopoulou is a Senior Research Scientist at Google DeepMind with eight years of industry and research experience focused on LLM post-training and instruction following for both agentic and language-generation use cases. She holds a PhD in Computer Science from LMU Munich, where her thesis advanced parameter-efficient transfer learning for multilingual NLP and domain adaptation under advisor Alex Fraser. Alexandra’s background spans top research labs and industry internships (DeepMind, Google, AWS, AI2), blending applied ML engineering with rigorous academic research. Based in New York, she brings an unusual combination of multilingual transfer expertise and practical deployment experience in large-scale models, often optimizing for instruction responsiveness rather than just raw perplexity.
