Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Karatzas is a software engineer with 10 years of hands-on experience building AI/ML products and developer tooling, currently exploring new opportunities in New York. He progressed through multiple engineering levels at Apple, shipping production ML systems, and recently created and maintained RustGPT, an open-source transformer LLM in Rust that has attracted notable attention on GitHub. As a former founder and DevOps lead, he combines product-oriented full‑stack skills (React/Node/Mongo) with production deployment and cost-conscious operations. Comfortable moving between research-adjacent ML work and pragmatic engineering, he brings a curious, tinkerer’s mindset—evidenced by side projects and an appetite for learning practical crafts like making a perfect cortado.
