Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Chiotellis is a Machine Learning Engineer at Apple with 11 years of experience and a PhD from the Computer Vision and AI Lab at TU Munich, where he advanced research in reinforcement learning, active learning, similarity and incremental learning, graph-based methods, and non-rigid 3D shape retrieval. He blends deep academic expertise with production-focused ML engineering, applying memory-augmented and lifelong learning techniques to real-world problems. Based in Munich, he moves comfortably between research and engineering, having earlier experience in Java-based data migration and hands-on lab work like 3D printing. His background in robotics, cognition, and computer vision gives him a strong systems view of perception and learning pipelines. Colleagues appreciate that he pairs theoretical rigor with practical implementation, often bridging novel research ideas into scalable solutions. A multilingual Greek-German education and long-standing ties to TU Munich hint at both international perspective and deep local research networks.
