Senior🎓
Top SchoolNishadi Kirielle is a Staff Software Engineer and TensorFlow-certified ML researcher with a PhD in Computer Science from the Australian National University and a decade of experience building production-grade systems and research-grade models. He blends academic rigor—evidenced by publications at top-tier conferences and a postdoctoral fellowship at CSIRO—with hands-on engineering at institutions like Commonwealth Bank and ANU, where he deployed scalable data-integration pipelines on HPC clusters. His technical focus spans RAG, generative AI, knowledge graphs, data integration, and question answering, and he has a history of optimizing large-scale workflows (e.g., a 10% runtime reduction for historical population reconstruction). A longtime open-source contributor and former Apache Gora PMC member, he brings deep familiarity with big-data persistence and distributed processing to bridge research and production. Based in Melbourne, he pairs systems-level engineering with cutting-edge ML research to move models from prototypes to resilient deployments.
