I build the systems that turn foundation models into products.

Software engineer at Meta working on AI infrastructure, AI products and ecosystem, and ML foundation models. I work across the stack that sits between a model and a user: training and serving infrastructure, agent and retrieval pipelines, evaluation, and the product surfaces where model behavior finally meets people.

About

At Meta my work spans AI infrastructure, AI product and ecosystem systems, and ML foundation‑model initiatives: the pipelines that train, serve, and evaluate models, and the product systems that put them in front of people. I care about the whole loop, from model capability to what a user actually experiences.

I came to this through research and still publish. My recent work covers multi‑agent systems for code review and literature synthesis, LLM evaluation and alignment with human judgment, and applied ML for clinical prediction. Before Meta I built data platform infrastructure at Meltwater and did research on generative AI, NLP, and health ML at Northeastern.
