Senior🎓
Top SchoolRodolfo Tonoli is an applied AI researcher and Data Science Advisor with nine years of experience building generative models, LLM-powered prototypes, and production-ready inference pipelines. With an MSc and PhD in Electrical Engineering from UNICAMP, his research blends diffusion-based models, speech-driven gesture generation, 3D animation and computer vision to enhance virtual communication and signing avatars. He has hands-on expertise operating mocap systems, creating synchronized audio-motion datasets, implementing state-of-the-art deep learning models, and shipping tooling such as a Python library for animation data processing and perceptual evaluation frameworks. At Articul8 AI and now Dell Technologies he has moved research into product by designing data pipelines and supervised fine-tuning workflows for specific LLM use cases. He combines rigorous mathematical/statistical analysis from academia with practical deployment experience, and has mentored students and presented work at international conferences. Based in São Paulo, he brings a rare mix of animation-domain knowledge and generative AI engineering to multimodal interaction problems.
