Senior🎓
Top SchoolIlari Vallivaara is a Senior Software Engineer and indoor positioning specialist with a PhD in Computer Science and over a decade of experience blending research-grade algorithms with production systems. He has moved advances from mobile robotics—SLAM, efficient sampling, and minimal sensors—into scalable mobile-device and distributed solutions, co-founding IndoorAtlas and later leading research at industry and academic labs. Proficient in Scala, Python, and Java (with solid MATLAB, C++ and Android experience), he builds robust state-estimation and spatial-data pipelines for real-world deployments. Currently splitting time between industry work and a Visiting Research Fellowship in Edinburgh, he brings both startup pragmatism and rigorous scientific methodology to product engineering. An understated strength is his ability to distill complex stochastic models into lightweight implementations that run on commodity mobile hardware.
