Dimitris Stripelis is a machine learning and distributed systems engineer with 11 years of experience focused on federated learning, ML systems, and data management. He is the creator of the Metis Federated Learning (MetisFL) framework and contributes to the wider federated AI ecosystem through documentation and usability improvements for projects like the widely-used Flower framework. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he combines rigorous academic training—a PhD and MS in Computer Science from USC and a BS from Athens University of Economics and Business—with hands-on systems engineering. His work emphasizes making complex, privacy-preserving ML workflows reproducible and accessible, from aggregation strategies to cloud deployment how-tos. A detail-oriented collaborator, he improves developer experience by clarifying tutorials and upgrading guides that lower the barrier to production for federated AI.
