Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBryce Sandlund is a research-focused software engineer and entrepreneur with 12 years of experience building optimization and ML systems, currently a Research Engineer at Baseten after co-founding AI Leap to work on ARC-AGI, RL, and LLM generalization. He led optimization at Gopuff—owning batching and packing algorithms—and has deep algorithmic roots from a Waterloo CS PhD with publications in FOCS/SODA and ICPC World Finals appearances. His background spans product-scale engineering at Microsoft and Google internships to research in algorithmic number theory and data structures, giving him fluency across theory and production. Bryce combines algorithm engineering (local search, combinatorial optimization) with practical delivery at scale, routinely moving research ideas into deployed systems. Based in San Francisco, he brings a rare mix of competitive algorithms pedigree and hands-on startup leadership that accelerates ML and optimization-driven product features. An understated detail: his PhD-level work directly informs the heuristics used in real-time batching systems he helped ship at Gopuff.
