About

Hello World! I am an Engineering Leader navigating our transition into an AI-native world, dedicated to sharing my insights, learnings, and raw thoughts as the technology evolves. Currently, I scale high-performing engineering teams at Meta focused on trust, safety, and high-stakes risk mitigation across the Facebook App—including Marketplace, Dating, and Pages. My remit is building resilient org structures while deeply connected to both the product and the underlying technology.

My philosophy is simple: hire the best, lead from the front, and immerse myself in the toughest problems. Whether architecting autonomous agentic systems, navigating complex cross-functional spaces, scaling local LLM infrastructure for billions of users, or designing defenses against sophisticated scam vectors, I bridge the gap between bleeding-edge AI innovation and pragmatic production engineering. I take pride in cultivating high-agency cultures that value deep craftsmanship, rigorous ownership, and rapid adaptability.

Beyond the codebase, I'm a dad, a tech enthusiast, and a lifelong traveler. I explore the world to challenge my own assumptions and gain diverse perspectives—a mindset that directly shapes how I build global products and inclusive, forward-thinking teams. Having traveled to over 30 countries so far, my goal is to explore as much of our world as possible, continuously immersing my family and myself in new cultures, religions, and cuisines.
