Evangelos Georganas is a Principal AI Engineer based in Berkeley with 13 years of experience bridging academic research and production-grade AI systems. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from UC Berkeley and spent a decade at Intel Labs advancing performance-focused ML tooling before stepping into a principal engineering role. His work blends low-level performance engineering—evidenced by contributions to the libxsmm project optimizing dense and sparse matrix kernels—with research expertise from postdoc and graduate research positions. Evangelos specializes in squeezing hardware efficiency out of deep learning primitives and creating robust binary descriptors and norm-checking logic that reveal a deep understanding of hardware-software co-design. Colleagues rely on him for translating cutting-edge research into highly optimized, deployable components for large-scale AI workloads.
