David Noursi is a software engineer with 11 years of experience building production AI, systems, and infrastructure for robotics and machine learning across industry and academia. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he has contributed to ML tooling and experimentation platforms at Facebook (including core work on Bean Machine) and moved from Covariant into Amazon’s frontier AI & robotics research lab with former coworkers in 2024. His background blends rigorous research—graduate work and teaching at Carnegie Mellon on rigid-body contact simulation and HCI—with practical systems experience from Google Cloud reliability and fuzzing internships and genomics research at NIH. David is comfortable shipping research-grade systems into production, bridging simulation, ML, and low-level reliability concerns in robotics stacks. An unexpected thread through his career is a sustained focus on tooling and infrastructure that amplifies other researchers’ and engineers’ productivity.
