Uma Annamalai — Technical Program Manager
Harvard Finance grad and strategic Technical Program Manager with 8+ years at Meta, Google, and fast-Whether it’s scaling a platform, building AI prototypes, optimizing workflows, or leading vendor teams, I bring structure to ambiguity and impact to every project. I’ve had the privilege of leading impactful AI/ML initiatives and operations transformations, and launching products that make a difference. One highlight was spearheading Macy’s largest loyalty program,Star Rewards, which now generates over $1 billion annually. In my role at Meta as a Program Manager, I manage a talented team of 20 language analysts across 14 languages to drive cross-functional localization projects. I’m proud to maintain a 90%+ accuracy rate in our annotation programs while ensuring our work aligns with broader business goals. I also enjoy giving back by mentoring aspiring professionals through adplist.org. It’s rewarding to help students land their first internships or guide seasoned candidates through transitions in their careers. My startup venture,Feedback Hero, aimed to enhance candidate experiences by providing meaningful feedback to applicants who weren’t selected. Outside of work, I am an avid kayaker and enjoy board games and scavenger hunts.
