Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoao Silva is a senior AI/ML platform engineering manager with 15 years of experience building data-heavy, cloud-native MLOps and inference platforms, currently leading AI platform and agent architecture at Gen in Prague. He drives end-to-end solutions—data ingestion, standardized training/serving pipelines, observability and low-latency security backends—favoring developer and researcher UX to reduce time from prototype to production. A pragmatic polyglot (Scala, Python) and infrastructure practitioner, he’s shipped high-throughput systems on GCP, AWS and Kubernetes using tools like Vertex AI, Kubeflow, BigQuery, Kafka and Terraform. Joao blends hands-on architecture with stakeholder collaboration, introducing company-wide standards (wanna-ml, A2A/LangGraph templates, MCP integrations) that prevent teams from reinventing their stacks. He’s an active speaker in the Data + AI community and uniquely pairs product-minded platform leadership with strict SLA-driven engineering for fraud and phishing detection at scale.
