Fotios Alexandridis is a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Zurich with nine years of hands-on experience building software for autonomous systems, backend platforms, and ML data workflows. He has worked across industry and academia—from a software engineering internship at Tesla to leading backend development for an education app and scrutineering autonomous EVs—bringing a pragmatic, safety-conscious approach to system design. As a former driverless engineer with Aristurtle and an indie hacker on GitHub, he blends research rigor with product-minded implementation and frequent prototyping. His recent roles annotating LLM data and joining ZEST under Prof. Alberto Bacchelli signal a shift toward empirical software engineering and trustworthy AI. Based in Zurich, he combines electrical and computer engineering training from Aristotle University with a demonstrated ability to move ideas from prototype to deployed services.
