Summary

👤
Senior
🎓
Top School
Michael Hofmann is a Senior Director of Engineering based in Amsterdam with 11 years of experience leading R&D teams at the intersection of machine learning, deep learning and computer vision. He combines a PhD-level research background from the University of Amsterdam with hands-on expertise in modern C++ and Python to ship production-grade systems for autonomous driving, AR, and mobile vision. At TomTom he scaled and managed multi-team HD map engineering for automated vehicles and helped establish an academic-industry ATLAS Lab; at Qualcomm he now leads engineering strategy and delivery. A pragmatic engineer who still contributes to open-source build tooling (notably fixes and port management in the widely used microsoft/vcpkg ecosystem), he is equally fluent in steering research directions and operationalizing models at scale.
