Bo Lei is an AI/ML Engineer with eight years of experience applying deep learning, computer vision, graph neural networks and generative models to scientific and engineering problems. He has moved between top research and industrial labs—PhD-trained at Carnegie Mellon, postdoc work at Lawrence Livermore, and now building applied AI at Seagate—to accelerate fluid dynamics and solid mechanics simulations with graph transformers and surrogate models. His portfolio spans diffusion models for materials defects, large-scale microscopy vision pipelines, and multimodal LLMs, emphasizing production-ready, scalable AI pipelines for scientific computing. Notably, he blends foundational research with pragmatic deployment, routinely optimizing models to reduce simulation runtime while retaining physical fidelity. Based in Fremont, CA, he thrives on tackling complex modeling challenges that bridge materials science and high-performance engineering workflows.
