Summary
🤩
RockstarBruno Levy is a senior researcher in computational physics and a long-time leader at Inria, currently serving as Scientific Director of the national high-risk/high-reward Inria Quadrant program and a member of Inria’s evaluation committee. He combines deep algorithmic expertise in geometry processing with hands-on software engineering—maintaining and extending the geogram C++ library used for geometric algorithms and cross-platform ports. From 2018 to 2022 he directed the Inria Nancy–Grand Est center and prior to that founded and led the ALICE project-team in computer graphics and geometry processing. His work spans academic research, program-level strategy, and engineering pragmatics, often turning theoretical advances into practical libraries and platform ports (including Mac M1 and Android). Based in Saclay, France, he brings more than two decades of research continuity and institutional leadership, with a knack for shepherding high-ambition projects from concept to robust implementation.

Back-end Developer & Algorithm Engineer
Back-end Developer & Algorithm EngineerContributions:14 releases, 635 commits, 29 PRs in 11 months
Contributions summary:Bruno's contributions primarily involved the initial import and maintenance of the `geogram` library, a C++ library for geometric algorithms. Their work includes fixing build configurations, refining existing example applications, and implementing specific algorithms like mesh intersection and texture atlas generation. They have also been involved in porting the project to different platforms, including Mac M1 and Android. The user also refactored code and enhanced existing functionality, such as adding a function to compute ambient occlusion.
