Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarco Perronet is a Senior Software Engineer based in London with eight years of experience building robust backend systems and robotics software, currently at Wayve. He bridges research and production engineering, transitioning from a PhD student at the Max Planck Institute to roles at Bloomberg and Meta where he shipped scalable backend features. His open-source contributions include substantive work on Facebook's Infer static analyzer—implementing Java datalog support, jar scanning, and class-level fact generation to improve reflection and allocation analysis. Comfortable across low-level program analysis, distributed services, and robot software stacks, he brings a pragmatic, research-informed approach to complex engineering problems. Colleagues rely on him for careful systems thinking and for turning academic ideas into production-ready tooling.

Contributions summary:Marco primarily contributed to the development of a static analyzer for Java, focusing on the Java datalog part of the project. Their work involved implementing a jar scanner to estimate lines of code and detect Java reflection usages within the codebase. They also added support for class-level fact generation, and implemented facts for allocations, casts, virtual and static calls. These additions enhance the analyzer's ability to detect potential issues within Java applications.
