Summary
Luca Mannini is a Senior AI Engineer based in the UK with 7 years of experience building production-grade LLM systems, conversational AI, and computer vision pipelines. He has led high-impact projects—rebuilding a conversational engine serving 35M+ users and architecting hybrid RAG+RLHF stacks that boosted engagement and coherence—while also co-founding an AI e-commerce startup that secured €1.1M pre-seed. Comfortable across research and deployment, he optimizes models for low-latency inference (including Jetson/Nvidia targets) and scales pipelines to handle 100k+ products and millions of users. A former robotics and vision lead, he brings hands-on C++/Python/ROS2 expertise alongside modern generative-AI tooling for production. Outside engineering, Luca is a trained pianist, a detail that surfaces in his methodical yet creative approach to problem solving.
