About this session
Whatever doesn't fit the mold: Get 30 minutes with a mentor to discuss your needs. Be it help with some code, discussing through an issue with your business, help for something at work or an issue with a project.
Your mentor
18+ years of experience on machine learning/AI and engineering leadership.
I'm an ML Engineering Manager at Meta, formerly at LinkedIn, with years of experience leading large-scale machine learning and AI initiatives from research to production. My expertise spans traditional machine learning, information retrieval, NLP, large language models (LLMs), recommendation systems, and ads ranking.
I enjoy mentoring engineers at all career stages by helping them master ML/AI fundamentals, excel in coding and system design interviews, navigate career transitions, and grow into senior IC or engineering management roles. My goal is to provide practical, industry-focused guidance based on real-world experience building production AI systems at top technology companies.
