Summary
Chawin Sitawarin is a research scientist at Google DeepMind specializing in security and privacy for machine learning, with a decade of experience focused on adversarial robustness and privacy-preserving ML. He earned his PhD in Computer Science from UC Berkeley under Prof. David Wagner and has held research positions at Meta, Google, IBM, Nokia Bell Labs, and Princeton, blending deep academic rigor with industrial impact. His recent work centers on vulnerabilities and defenses for large language models, building on a strong track record in adversarial examples and causal approaches to robustness. Comfortable moving between theory and systems, he has a history of shipping research through internships and postdoctoral work that influence production-facing teams. Based in the Bay Area, he brings a rare combination of hands-on implementation experience (from C/C++/MATLAB hardware synthesis to modern ML stacks) and cutting-edge security research.
