Senior🎓
Top SchoolElena Grigore is a Senior Research Scientist specializing in learned autonomy and behavior prediction for self-driving vehicles, with 11 years of experience across industry leaders including Latitude AI, Argo AI, Motional, and Uber ATG. She develops deep learning models that predict trajectories, intentions, and space occupancy for agents like vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians, translating academic robotics research into production-grade prediction systems. Her Ph.D. from Yale focused on adaptive robots that infer task structure to provide supportive behaviors, a perspective she brings to modeling interactive, human-centered road behavior. Based in Palo Alto, she combines rigorous academic grounding with hands-on industry deployment experience and a consistent focus on the dynamics of multi-agent urban environments.
