Alessandro Grassi

I’m a software engineer at Google in Warsaw, building cloud infrastructure and AI tools in Cloud AI. Before that, I interned at AWS on CloudWatch and at JetBrains on virtualization, while studying for my M.Sc. in Computer Science at the Technical University of Munich. I did my B.Sc. at the University of Turin.

These days I mostly care about distributed systems, low-level system programming, databases, and building tools to work better and easier with AI. I’m also spending time to catch up with frontier LLM and AI infra.
