Summary
Francisco Eiras is the founding AI engineer at Magentic, building AI agents to make supply chains and procurement superhuman for large enterprises. He brings 11 years of experience bridging deep research and production, having completed a PhD in Machine Learning at Oxford’s AIMS CDT and worked on safety and compliance for generative models at Dynamo AI. His background in safe, robust, and scalable motion-planning at Five (acquired by Bosch) and earlier vision research informs a pragmatic approach to deploying provably reliable ML systems. Comfortable moving from theoretical optimization and verification to shipping engineering systems, he’s equally at home publishing in top venues and integrating CI-backed research code into product stacks. Based in London, he combines academic rigor with startup execution, and often applies ideas from autonomous driving and computer vision to enterprise AI problems in novel ways.
