Perry Sakkaris is a seasoned software engineer with 16 years of experience building infrastructure and AI-focused systems, currently contributing to Google from California. His background spans founding QuDot—where he developed a quantum-classical VM capable of simulating Shor’s algorithm to 70 qubits using tensor-decomposition ideas—to leading engineering teams and platforms at Rescale and Fandango. Perry blends deep systems and data-platform expertise (from real-time analytics and distributed Redis/HBase stores to Solr search integrations) with hands-on research in quantum simulation and accelerator-aware AI infrastructure. Comfortable moving between individual contributor and managerial roles, he has a rare mix of physics training (MS in Physics) and practical software craftsmanship that informs his work on performance-critical, scale-out systems. An entrepreneur at heart, he is preparing to open-source the QuDot technology, signaling a commitment to community impact beyond proprietary products.
