About Filip Iliescu
I am a technical leader and full-stack engineer with many years of experience both in large/medium sized companies like Apple (10 Years), Unity, Magic Leap, Niantic and Inworld; as well as startups I co-founded or played a major role in. I have deep knowledge of AI and agent workflows, cloud infrastructure, graphics/rendering, media entertainment, web technologies, Unreal and Unity game engines, and mixed reality platforms. I currently work as an R&D lead or technical consultant (via my consulting company: Dream Awake Solutions) helping companies with multimodal AI R&D and agent-based workflows deployed to cloud microservices. I also build client applications or edge deployed AI via Web, Unreal, or Native Apps.
