computo, ergo sum

I’m Adrian, a computer scientist and artificial intelligence researcher.

Born in Romania, I studied computer science in the United Kingdom and began my career at Morgan Stanley, where I worked on large-scale data systems and graph-based analysis. I later moved to the United States to join Google, where I worked on production systems that combined distributed infrastructure, graphs, and machine learning, and explored how complex systems coordinate, reason, and scale in practice.

I have since returned to the UK to pursue a PhD in Computer Science at the University of Manchester. My research focuses on artificial intelligence, reinforcement learning, and reasoning systems, with an emphasis on connecting theory to systems that work at scale.

Beyond research, I am involved in organisations such as IEEE, BCS, and the Society of Research Software Engineering, contributing to mentorship, governance, and community-building efforts that support sustainable research software and open collaboration.
