Federico Betti is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer with nine years of experience building production-grade NLP and multimodal LLM systems from research to shipped product. At Typewise (YC W22) he designs and optimizes multilingual text-prediction, grammar correction, and generative features that balance model performance, latency, and footprint, while integrating retrieval-augmented hierarchical agents for real-world automation. He combines a PhD-level research background—collaborating with ETH Zurich labs on efficient NLP models—with a startup mindset, partnering with founders on product strategy, hiring, and go-to-market tradeoffs. Comfortable across research, engineering, and human-in-the-loop evaluation pipelines, he focuses on measurable user impact and smooth product discovery. Outside work he’s a Padel and NBA fan who welcomes thoughtful collaborations.
