About

I build the infrastructure that makes frontier AI fast, reliable, and scalable. Over the past 10+ years at Meta, I've led engineering teams across some of the most demanding infrastructure domains in the industry - from LLM inference for frontier models, Stream Processing at petabyte scale, to the Observability systems that keep Meta's products running for billions of users. Today, I'm part of Meta SuperIntelligence Labs, where my team owns the LLM inference platform to deliver frontier models like MUSE Spark. We optimize for latency, throughput, and cost efficiency across both online serving and multimodal training workloads — the kind of systems where a 10ms improvement matters at millions of QPS. Before this, I led the Meta's stream processing platform (XStream) where we powered real-time data infra for AI/ML — directly influencing the content ranking for Instagram Reels and Facebook Feed. We scaled systems 100x while improving data freshness to sub-second latency. Earlier, I built Meta's end-to-end Monitoring & Observability infrastructure and delivered AI-powered investigations, before the LLM buzz and when industry was still figuring out what it looks like, reducing investigation time for critical alerts at Meta by 50%. Before Meta: at AWS, I led the EBS real-time analytics platform, taking reliability from 98% → 99.99% as EBS grew into a multi-billion dollar product. At Adobe, I developed the cross-platform framework that moved Photoshop, Illustrator, and Dreamweaver from Carbon to Cocoa.
