About
Welcome! I'm Sandro Lombardi.
I offer my services as an independent contractor / freelancer within the computer vision space with a focus on 3D reconstruction and machine learning. My interests, however, extend beyond these areas to include other aspects of artificial intelligence and the broader field of digital automation.
Computer Vision Engineer & Independent Contractor.
I started my journey as an independent contractor in the computer vision and machine learning space in summer 2024, for which I created my own company Maivico.
Before that, I worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Computer Vision and Geometry Group (CVG) at ETH Zurich, where I also did my PhD and worked as a research assistant. During my time at CVG, I collaborated a lot with the ETH-Spinoff Astrivis, which gave me insights into bringing computer vision and 3D reconstruction into real-world products.
I did my MSc and BSc degree in computer science at ETH Zurich as well. During and in between my studies I briefly worked as software developer for the Balgrist University Hospital and rola Security Systems AG.
