Blaž Stojanovič is an engineer blending eight years of physics-driven scientific computing with practical machine learning and founding-stage product work. He has led relational deep learning and agent efforts at Kumo.ai for fraud detection, personalization, and recommender systems, and now contributes to pre-training engineering at Poolside in Mountain View. His academic background (MPhil in Scientific Computing from Cambridge and a physics BSc) and research at Stanford and Jozef Stefan Institute inform work on graph neural networks, large-scale simulation emulation, and meshless PDE solvers. He pairs rigorous numerical methods experience—parallelization, domain decomposition, and uncertainty quantification—with applied ML for real-world systems. Notably, he moves comfortably between building production models and publishing research-grade software and papers, bringing a scientist’s curiosity to product-focused engineering.
