About Me

I work for IBM Research AI in Zurich as a Research Staff Member. I build large scale distributed machine learning architectures for natural language processing.

My research interests lie at the edge of data-mining, network monitoring and database technologies.
I enjoy squeezing instructions in CPU cycles.

I am a co-author of several patents in the area of indexing and compression. I co-authored papers in top networking, databases, data-mining and machine learning conferences.

I got my PhD at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH) while working for IBM Research. I have been a senior researcher at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH) and affiliated with the Communication System Group.

Before joining IBM Research I have been a Senior Software Engineer in Red Hat working on the networking stack of the Linux Kernel. Also I had the pleasure to work for Endace in New Zealand.
