What You’ve Done
15+ years in consumer tech/platforms with 7+ years leading cross-functional Eng + DS/MLE teams.
Delivered production ML (recommendations/ranking/search/ads/feeds) for millions of users with measurable uplift and strong SLOs.
Built/owned feature & embedding stores, online feature serving, streaming pipelines, and A/B platforms.
Deep hands-on expertise in large-scale backend (Java/Scala/Go) or applied ML (Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow) with architectural leadership.
Experience with real-time systems (Kafka/PubSub, Flink/Spark Streaming), datastores (Redis, Cassandra/DynamoDB, Elasticsearch), MLOps (MLflow/Kube/Triton/Ray), and cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP).
Proven implementation of privacy-by-design, data contracts, and governance in production pipelines.
Strong product sense and storytelling; ability to align executives and mentor senior ICs and managers.
