Top SchoolVictor Elias is an AI researcher and software engineer with 13 years of experience building resilient, high-performance distributed systems and real-time AI runtimes from Brazil. He led foundational infrastructure and live inference pipelines at Livepeer, shipped on-chain protocol work for Arbitrum, and now focuses on challenging frontier models and crafting expert data at Vetto AI. Comfortable across backend, full-stack, and cloud-native tooling, he has a track record of improving reliability in critical libraries (e.g., Go Livepeer server, a robust RabbitMQ wrapper) and squeezing millisecond-level gains in platform routers. A practical engineer with deep systems and low-level experience from internships at Google, Microsoft, Facebook and AWS, he combines product-facing integration work with devops-grade abstractions. Known as a "software artisan" on GitHub, he blends rigorous academic training from ITA with a creator-centric approach to make real-time media and AI experiences extensible and observable.
