Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuca Terracciano is a Research Software Engineer with 8 years of experience specializing in HPC and distributed systems, currently optimizing performance for applications on Huawei Ascend NPUs. He built a portable model for heterogeneous distributed execution that enabled multiple internal teams to migrate workloads to serverless and MPI environments with no refactoring, and boosted HPL-AI benchmark performance by over 40% in simulation through combined static and dynamic scheduling. Earlier work includes designing Neptune, a low-latency serverless platform for edge infrastructures with GPU sharing and restart-free vertical scaling, and implementing monitoring and CI/CD tooling in production Kubernetes environments. With an MSc from Politecnico di Milano and hands-on teaching and research roles, he blends academic rigor with pragmatic engineering, often surfacing low-overhead solutions that reduce SLA violations and network overhead. Always learning, he pairs deep systems knowledge with a knack for making complex platforms easier to adopt across teams.
