Oluwatobi Olabiyi is a Director of Engineering at NVIDIA with 11 years of experience building and leading teams that deliver state-of-the-art generative and multimodal AI for language, speech, and vision. He combines deep academic rigor—a PhD in Electrical Engineering and a strong publication record in communications and signal processing—with hands-on product and deployment experience across automotive, finance, and semiconductor industries. Previously he led AI research at Capital One on end-to-end generative dialogue and deployed large-scale deep learning systems, and he has a track record of shipping production reinforcement- and supervised-learning solutions. Known for bridging signal processing, DSP and modern deep learning, he has designed algorithms from RF system architecture to autonomous driving path planning. Based in Falls Church, VA, he brings both research-first curiosity and practical engineering leadership to scale complex AI initiatives. A less obvious strength is his cross-domain fluency—moving seamlessly between low-level communications theory and high-level cognitive computing to drive novel, production-ready ML solutions.
