Stefan Palicki is a Distinguished Software Engineer based in the San Francisco Bay Area with 14 years in software engineering and eight focused on machine learning and AI. He has deep full-stack expertise spanning TensorFlow/PyTorch model performance analysis and distributed training down to processor/coprocessor assembly and kernel patches. Stefan spent nearly a decade at Intel designing software for scalable multinode AI workloads on Nervana processors and earlier led kernel- and driver-level work for Xeon Phi coprocessors. His background also includes building LLVM-based compilers and leading cross-city product prototypes at Samsung, giving him rare fluency across hardware, compilers, and high-performance ML stacks. He combines rigorous software process discipline—requirements, risk assessment, open-source contributions and customer deployments—with hands-on optimization for both software and silicon. Colleagues rely on him for bridging low-level systems engineering and practical AI productionization in performance-constrained environments.
