Hi! I'm Maurice. I'm currently a member of technical staff at Microsoft AI in Zurich, working on pre-training. Most recently, I was at Together AI, where I worked on modelling and data with a focus on inference efficiency.

I obtained a PhD degree from ETH Zurich under the supervision of Prof. Ce Zhang. My PhD work revolved around robustness guarantees for machine learning systems.

I have also had some fun leading the development and release of the RedPajama Datasets, which are among the largest and most popular LLM pre-training datasets.
