About this website
Hi! I’m Riccardo, and you’re on my personal website. I will be using it to share updates on what I am up to, as well as some blog posts on stuff I may find interesting.
About myself
I am a research engineer employed by P16, a project within Inria whose objective is developing promising scientific libraries in Python. I am one of the core devs of the Skrub library, and among other things I am working on implementing in the library some of the code I worked on during my postdoc.
Said postdoc involved figuring out the “best practices” to integrate information coming from data lakes with tables of interest. I split my time between between the SODA Team at
Inria Saclay and the R&D department of Dataiku.
Before that, I obtained a PhD in Computer Science from EURECOM, in Sophia Antipolis (near Nice in the south of France). The subject of the PhD was automating methods to integrate data and impute missing values. I published some of my findings at SIGMOD2020 and EDBT2024.
All my publications are available here.
On the personal side, I am a big fan of gaming, anime/manga, technology and history.
I have been living in France since 2016, but for various reasons I am still not as fluent in French as I would like.
My personal CV is available here.
