Senior🎓
Top SchoolIason Batzianoulis is a Senior R&D Engineer with 10 years of experience building and deploying deep learning models and cloud-native web applications, currently contributing to simulation and ML services at Synopsys and Ansys in Lausanne. He holds a PhD from EPFL in Machine Learning and Robotics, where his research bridged robot arm trajectory generation, in-hand manipulation, and EMG-driven control—work that couples perception-driven obstacle avoidance with dynamical systems for reactive, human-safe motion. Skilled across Python, JavaScript, AWS HPC for CPU/GPU workloads, and MLaaS backends, he moves models from research prototypes into scalable cloud deployments. His background in neuroprosthetics and tactile sensing gives him a rare mix of clinical-grade signal understanding and production ML engineering. Colleagues rely on him to translate advanced robotics research into practical simulation tools and web services that accelerate engineering workflows.
