About me

Current status: PhD student

I'm currently working on Transformers for code generation and translation as a PhD student in the University of Edinburgh.

Research and work experience

I have interned at Bloomberg LP and MILA to work on Large Language Models (LLMs) and multi-modal meta-learning, respectively. I used to work as research engineer in NLP at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center. I have leveraged HPC to train Transformer models with multiple nodes and GPUs and to clean TBs of raw text.

Teaching

I have worked as a supervisor (teaching assistant) for the Computer Science undergrad courses of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and Bayesian Inference at the University of Cambridge.

Education

I graduated from UPC-BarcelonaTech in Computer Science at. Later on, I graduated with a Master's in AI from the same university. Currently, I'm enrolled to the informatics PhD program of the University of Edinburgh.
