Rogerio Bonatti is a Member of Technical Staff at Microsoft AI with nine years of experience building and post-training large language models and multi-modal LLM agents for both desktop and robotic applications. He holds a PhD from Carnegie Mellon and has blended deep academic research with industry impact through internships at Facebook AI Research and Microsoft Research. At Microsoft he has driven generative and vision-language models into products like Windows Copilot and developed foundational models that fuse language, vision, and geometry for decision-making in robotics. Rogerio’s background in mechanical and mechatronics engineering gives him a rare systems-level perspective on embodied AI, and his public website hosts his up-to-date publications and projects. He combines research rigor with product-focused engineering, consistently moving novel multimodal techniques from lab prototypes toward real-world deployments.
