Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichail Iliadis is a Senior Research Engineer at Apple with 11 years of experience applying deep learning to computer vision, face recognition, document analysis, and efficient semantic segmentation for resource-constrained devices. He holds a Ph.D. in EECS from Northwestern University and has a track record of taking projects end-to-end—from data collection and bias-aware dataset curation to distributed training and production deployment. At Clarifai he scaled face detection and ArcFace-style embeddings across millions of images, improving true positive rates and robustness to extreme poses, and earlier work produced patentable systems for one-shot classification and near-duplicate retrieval. Michail combines rigorous academic research with product-focused engineering, optimizing both model accuracy and interoperability of ML pipelines. Based in San Jose, he blends low-level algorithmic innovation with practical systems work, often improving runtime or deployment efficiency in real-world settings.
