Simone Campanoni is a research scientist at Google and an associate professor at Northwestern University with 11 years of professional experience focused on the intersection of compilers, hardware, and application trends. He studies how programming abstractions and compiler designs should evolve to better leverage emerging hardware, bringing rigorous academic research into practical systems work on the XLS team. Educated with a PhD from Politecnico di Milano and seasoned by postdoctoral work at Harvard, he combines deep theoretical grounding with hands-on engineering in large-scale software and research projects. Based in Evanston, IL, he balances industry research at Google with ongoing academic leadership, reflecting a rare dual-track career that shapes both future engineers and production compiler technology.
