Biography

Gioele is the Rudge (1948) and Nancy Allen Assistant Professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is a principal investigator in the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS), the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE), and an affiliate faculty with the Institute for Data, Systems and Society (IDSS).

He received his doctoral degree in 2024 from ETH Zurich, and holds both a BSc. and a MSc. in Mechanical Engineering and Robotics, Systems and control from ETH Zurich.
Before joining MIT as a faculty member, he was a Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University (January to June 2024), and held various visiting positions at nuTonomy Singapore (then Aptiv, now Motional), Stanford, and MIT.

Driven by societal challenges, the goal of his research is to develop efficient computational tools and algorithmic approaches to formulate and solve complex, interconnected system design and autonomous decision making problems.

His interests include the co-design complex systems, all the way from future mobility systems to autonomous systems, compositionality in engineering, planning and control, and game theory.
He is the recipient of an award (keynote talk) at the 2021 Applied Category Theory Conference, the Best Paper Award (1st Place) at the 2021 24th IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC), and Amazon and DoE awards.

He created the Autonomy Talks. Check out the webpage, and have a look at the (over 180) recorded talks.
