Cristian Greco is a machine learning and aerospace researcher-turned-founder with seven years of experience designing robust, uncertainty-aware control and optimization methods for space missions and financial systems. As Founding Head of Machine Learning at GenieAI, he applies rigorous stochastic optimal control and surrogate modeling techniques to production-grade portfolio and risk management for digital assets. His PhD work and visiting research at NASA JPL focused on novel theoretical and computational frameworks for autonomous, resilient trajectory design under uncertainty—skills he now translates into data-driven automation and decision systems. Educated with top honors from Politecnico di Milano and Delft, Cristian blends academic rigor with practical startup leadership, and has a track record of outperforming classical optimizers in real-world scheduling and low-thrust trajectory problems. An uncommon strength is his ability to bridge deep probabilistic control theory with deployable ML workflows, making complex uncertainty treatment usable in industry settings.
