Giovanni Burresi is a technology leader and serial researcher with 12 years of experience bridging machine learning, IoT, embedded systems and immersive 3D simulation. As Co-Founder and CTO of SCAILAB and a current research engineer at Mälardalen University, he combines startup product leadership with applied research for autonomous driving scenarios and synthetic dataset generation using Blender and Unreal Engine. His background includes postdoctoral positions at Siena and Carnegie Mellon, where he led IoT R&D, taught design thinking, and delivered industrial-grade prototypes from depth-camera ATM-fraud detectors to gesture-sensing systems. Comfortable across hardware firmware, Linux/Android BSPs for ARM/NVIDIA, and cloud/ML toolchains, he brings both hands-on engineering and user-centered design practices to teams. Based in Tuscany and Sweden, he has a PhD-level academic grounding and a knack for turning research prototypes into fieldable solutions that serve industry partners like Saab and Monte dei Paschi di Siena.
