Sebastian Russo

I'm Seb, a research PM at Google DeepMind.

• Code post-training for Gemini — eval design: consumer webdev and 1P SWE tasks, RL/SFT code-data procurement, and LM judges (e.g. tool use, instruction following) for offline & online analysis.
• Gemini Embeddings — recently, lead PM (modeling, GTM) for an upcoming Gemma-family open embedding model.

I studied computer science at Stanford and graduated in 2025. I live in San Francisco, originally from San Marcos, Texas.

I write essays. Reachable on social or at sebrusso@cs.stanford.edu.
