Marco Rossignoli is a Principal Software Engineer with two decades of experience building high-availability distributed systems, from low-latency fintech CEP engines to modern agentic LLM tooling for millions of developers. Based in Prague, he combines deep .NET expertise—contributing to core projects like dotnet/runtime and co-maintaining Coverlet—with practical systems knowledge in Azure, microservices, and secure telemetry. At Microsoft he designs and implements agentic systems and LLM evaluation infrastructure for GitHub Copilot, bringing rigorous testing and prototype-driven innovation to production-scale AI. Marco’s background in OS internals, WinDbg, and multicore programming gives him an unusual ability to optimize both runtime and developer-facing tooling, and he’s known for turning rapid prototypes into reliable, auditable systems.
