Thibault Verny

Statistical Learning, Agentic AI & Real-World Systems

M.A. student in Statistics & Data Science at UC Berkeley, following a B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering at EPFL.

My work combines statistical learning, machine learning, and agentic AI to build reliable decision systems for real-world problems.

Available for full-time roles from May 2027. Open to conversations before then.

Areas of focus

The technical areas connecting my projects and experience.

My work spans statistical learning, uncertainty, intelligent systems, and technical decision tools, with a focus on methods that remain useful and reliable on imperfect real-world data.

Statistical Learning & Uncertainty

Probabilistic modeling, robust inference, calibration, validation, and uncertainty quantification.

Agentic AI & Decision Systems

Tool-using LLM systems, deterministic analytics, agent orchestration, evaluation, and decision-support pipelines.

Sensing, Localization & Control

Signal processing, sensor fusion, localization, simulation-to-hardware validation, and feedback control.

Experience

Wakam

Jun 2026 – Aug 2026

AI Engineer Intern

Industry

Built the governance and analytics layer for an internal LLM agent platform: ingestion workflows into PostgreSQL, monthly snapshots, and agent lifecycle, ownership and freshness signals feeding review recommendations rather than automated deletions. Also delivered credit-consumption analytics by period, user and agent, and prototyped a semantic similarity pipeline for agent configurations using deterministic fingerprinting and vector retrieval.

EPFL Automatic Control Laboratory

Feb 2026 – Jun 2026

Bachelor's Thesis Research Project

Research Project

Developed and experimentally validated a UWB-based localization and control system for robotic tracking, combining physical sensing, empirical noise modeling, ROS 2 simulation, and hardware integration.

EPFL

Sep 2025 – Dec 2025

Teaching Assistant — Calculus III & Programming for Engineers

Teaching

Led problem-solving sessions and supported undergraduate students in advanced calculus, scientific computing, Python, C, and MATLAB.

DPULSE.AI

Sep 2025 – Jan 2026

Co-founder & Founding Engineer

Entrepreneurship

Developed probabilistic NLP pipelines for organizational narrative analysis, with a focus on uncertainty and responsible interpretation.

Junior Enterprise EPFL

Sep 2024 – May 2026

Vice-President

Leadership

Scoped and delivered a CHF 150k+ portfolio of ML/AI and software mandates directly with external clients, from first scoping conversation through delivery, in a year when Junior Enterprise EPFL reached a record CHF 425k and was named Best Junior Enterprise in Switzerland 2026.
