Rigor before scale
Correctness and reproducibility come first. Scaling a wrong result just gets there faster.

How I work
Correctness and reproducibility come first. Scaling a wrong result just gets there faster.
Research earns its keep when it ships: from PDE solvers to production RAG pipelines.
A concept isn’t understood until it survives being taught to 1000 students.
Trajectory
01 / Research
From distributed high-order differentiation on multi-GPU clusters to privacy-preserving inference: published, peer-reviewed research, not slideware.
02 / Engineering
CTO at Qflex Technologies, leading AI system architecture and delivery for enterprise clients.
Built production RAG, knowledge-graph extraction, and speech pipelines at the Research Institute and Bitdefender.
Built AlgoTrack end to end, a tutoring platform deployed and in daily use.
03 / Teaching
Associate Lecturer at POLITEHNICA Bucharest since 2022, across programming, parallel algorithms, and numerical methods.
