Summary
Daniel Antunes is a Senior Software Engineer based in Paris with 12 years of experience blending research-grade mathematical optimization and image-processing expertise with production software development. He holds a PhD in Computer Science and spent his doctoral work developing provably convergent digital curvature-based estimators for segmentation, denoising, and inpainting while producing C++, Python, and shell tooling. Since 2021 he has been building scalable features at SoundHound AI, progressing from Software Engineer to Senior Software Engineer and applying his background in numerical analysis to real-world audio and ML systems. Comfortable across backend and frontend stacks, he pairs rigorous theoretical instincts with pragmatic engineering to ship robust, well-tested code. A published researcher who has taught and presented at conferences, he brings a rare combination of academic rigor and product-focused execution to complex algorithmic problems.
