Senior🎓
Top SchoolTommaso Carraro is a research-focused software engineer with 8 years of experience, currently developing LLM-powered recommendation systems at Disney Research Zurich. He holds a PhD in AI from the University of Padova with a visiting research stint at Rutgers, and has a strong track record building LLM agents and Neuro-Symbolic recommenders during multiple internships at SonyAI, including a RecSys 2025 paper and a production-oriented proof-of-concept for the SonyLIV platform. He combines deep academic expertise in NeSy integration with hands-on engineering in function-calling LLM architectures, vector stores, and recommender frameworks like RecBole and Qdrant. Notably, he demonstrated practical gains by improving small-model function-calling via in-context example retrieval and designed LLM reranking based on generated user personas. Based in Vigonza, Italy, he bridges research and productization, focusing on scalable, tool-enabled agents that make recommendations interpretable and interactive.
