Ciao! I'm Federico, a computer science researcher from Milan, Italy, studying at Northeastern University and working as a Research Scientist at Anysphere, improving Cursor.
Working with Prof. Arjun Guha at NUPRL, I've earned several awards in cybersecurity and AI, while publishing my research in prestigious venues. My research focuses on advancing automated software engineering, with the ultimate goal of fully automating the programming process.
To further this goal, I co-founded GammaTau AI, an independent group of 40+ researchers dedicated to democratizing access to programming through AI. Additionally, I'm an active contributor to the BigCode project, which is responsible for developing the StarCoder family of large language models.
I'm also honored to serve as the captain of the highly skilled NUCCDC cybersecurity team, which has claimed the NECCDC championship title for three consecutive years.
Prior to Cursor, I held research positions at leading tech companies including Scale AI, Roblox, and Trail of Bits.
