The active SimPPL team is small by design. Founders set direction; ML engineers build and ship the platforms; current interns rotate through research engineering. The board of directors keeps us honest. The alumni page lists those who have shipped with us since 2021.
Beyond the team listed below, we collaborate with folks (and their teams) at Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Harvard, Stanford, MIT, and NYU, including Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winners. The active team below is the small core that ships day to day.
Postdoctoral Associate at Boston University and MIT Sloan. PhD in Data Science, NYU. Former visiting researcher at Oxford and Meta; engineering at Twitter, Adobe, and Slack. Atlantic Dialogues Emerging Leader; Belfer Fellow; Google Research Innovator.

The full SimPPL alumni network is larger than this page. The 65 alumni on the alumni page agreed to share their current affiliation publicly; they are now at FAANG companies, in newsrooms, in graduate school, or building their own companies. 5 external faculty and senior researchers who lead or co-lead our projects are listed as research collaborators on the same page.
