Senior🎓
Top SchoolLivio Soares is a Staff Software Engineer with over a decade of experience blending systems research and applied natural language understanding, currently contributing to Google Research’s language efforts and Google DeepMind. He co-founded and architected IBM Watson’s Concept Insights service, bringing together large knowledge graphs, probabilistic inference, and low-latency web systems. His Ph.D. from the University of Toronto yielded practical OS and runtime innovations—like exception-less system calls and cache remapping—that improved multi-core and I/O performance and reveal a propensity to bridge theory and production. Comfortable across distributed systems, operating systems, and NLP, he excels at turning research prototypes into scalable cloud services. Based in New York, he pairs deep hardware-aware performance expertise with modern language-technology design, a combination that helps optimize both algorithmic models and their infrastructure.
