Manuele Sigona is a Machine Learning Engineer with nine years of experience and over five years focused on building, optimizing and debugging ML models with a specialty in memory- and performance-constrained deployments. He has hands-on experience fine-tuning and running large transformer models (including Flan-T5 XXL) on novel hardware, having implemented end-to-end inference and fitting strategies for Graphcore IPUs. His background spans low-level optimisation—down to custom CUDA kernels and assembly tweaks—as well as higher-level ML platform work, enabling customers to port and reliably run models in production. Previously he contributed to performance-focused model engineering at a leading AI company before joining Fetch.ai, and he combines strong academic results in electronics and physics with practical systems skills. As a digital nomad based in London, he seeks fully remote roles where he can push LLM capabilities while continuing to follow and adopt the latest advances in the field.
