Grigor Aslanyan is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience blending applied research and production engineering, currently working on search ranking at Google after leading search science research at eBay. He holds a PhD in Physics and has a strong computational background from academic roles at UC Berkeley and University of Auckland, where he developed Bayesian and numerical tools for cosmological inference. Grigor’s early industry work focused on large-scale geometric algorithms in C++, giving him deep algorithmic and systems expertise that complements his machine learning and ranking work. He excels at turning research ideas into production-grade systems, bridging statistical rigor with scalable engineering. Based in San Francisco, he brings a rare mix of theoretical depth and hands-on software craftsmanship that helps improve real-world search experiences. An understated strength is his history of building reusable numerical libraries and tooling that accelerate complex data-driven projects.
