About

Proven track record in leading high-performance teams, developing cutting-edge ML infrastructure, and driving innovation in the AI/ML space. * Led teams at Google responsible for critical Machine Learning infrastructure – the Distributed TensorFlow library and the TensorFlow Extended (TFX) platform. These systems enable scaling and automation of ML training workloads (e.g. LLM training). * Spent a few months exploring GenAI/LLM applications and infrastructure as an entrepreneur. * Seasoned engineering leader: Managed an org of ~30 people (including L7 managers and ICs) – developing strategy and guiding execution, hiring, mentoring, and leading org-wide / company-wide initiatives. * Extensive experience building scalable systems across the tech stack at both Google and Coursera. Contributed to complex engineering projects like TensorFlow. Solid academic background.
