Luis Kaiser

I am a PhD student in Computational Mathematics and AI at the Oden Institute, The University of Texas at Austin advised by Richard Tsai. My focus is AI for science and applied mathematics.

Currently at Google [X], the moonshot factory, I build AI researchers - agentic systems that self-improve recursively and drive scientific discovery end-to-end -
for an undisclosed project in finance and decarbonization.

Previously I was a Software Engineer at Bloomberg in London where I built large-scale AI forecasting systems. I completed my B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Mathematics at Technical University of Munich (TUM) and University of Wuerzburg working with Christian Klingenberg and Andreas Hotho.
