Senior🎓
Top SchoolThibault Séjourné is a quantitative researcher and postdoctoral AI fellow with eight years of experience bridging applied mathematics and machine learning, currently working at Qube Research & Technologies after a postdoc at EPFL. He earned a PhD from ENS Paris focused on optimal transport and non-convex optimization, and has led and co-authored collaborative research that reached top-tier venues. His work spans incorporating physical priors into ML, fine-tuning foundation models, and practical quantitative problems—combining rigorous math with production-minded modeling. He has supervised students, revived stalled collaborations into publications, and regularly presents at conferences, signaling both mentorship and sustained scholarly impact. Based in Lausanne, he brings a rare mix of academic depth and industry application, with early experience in lean manufacturing and systems modeling that informs his pragmatic approach to complex black-box systems.
