Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrea Donati is a Founding AI Research Engineer with 11 years of experience building production-ready ML systems, currently leading LLM-driven procurement automation and agent tooling at compri. He previously advanced scene understanding for autonomous vehicles at Five, publishing novel sensor-fusion and temporal-attention work that helped secure top results in the Nuscenes Detection Challenge. His background spans deep learning for speech (TTS and voice cloning), multi-modal 3D perception, and practical MLOps—bridging research, fine-tuning, and deployment. Trained at Politecnico di Milano with exchange study at TU Delft, he blends strong academic foundations with hands-on engineering and a knack for turning research ideas into robust, well-structured codebases. An uncommon thread across his roles is shipping research into product: from expressive voice solutions for patients to real-time perception models and now LLMs with tool use.
