Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarco Marino is a Principal Software Engineer based in Melbourne with 13+ years building large-scale security and ML systems at Microsoft, where he has driven real-time inference pipelines and research-practice integrations across Defender and M365 Defender research. He excels at turning complex threat and data problems into production-grade, maintainable solutions—spanning deep learning, graph neural nets, multimodal models, and big-data telemetry at internet scale. Marco blends hands-on engine and cloud infrastructure work (including low-latency inferencing and stream-based pipelines) with stakeholder-facing collaboration to operationalize cutting-edge research. He has repeatedly led cross-team efforts to modernize stacks and ship models that serve millions of daily requests while keeping strict performance and release constraints. Notably, his background ranges from protocol-level telephony and VoIP systems to antimalware engine internals, giving him an uncommon perspective on systems, observability and threat ancestry analysis. He pairs pragmatic software design patterns with a research-forward mindset, making him effective at bridging prototype ML research and robust production services.
