Pere Martra is an ML research engineer and author based in Barcelona with 11 years of experience building efficient, secure, and production-ready AI systems. He specializes in LLM post-training optimization—structural pruning, knowledge distillation, and adaptive inference—and is the creator of OptiPfair, an open-source toolkit for activation-guided, fairness-aware pruning that helped his projects retain ~98% performance at half the model size. Author of a forthcoming Manning guide on rearchitecting LLMs, Pere combines hands-on deployment expertise (FastAPI, Docker, CI/CD) with academic rigor from a master’s in AI research and a track record of bias-mitigation validated on models like Llama-3.2 and Salamandra-2B. His background in ATM security and large-scale banking systems informs a pragmatic focus on robustness and responsible AI, and his Large Language Model Notebooks have attracted significant community attention (1.8K+ GitHub stars).
