Pod / Tech Lead & AI Research Scientist, Meta
I am an AI Research Scientist at Meta, where I am a tech lead for large language model compression and inference optimization for edge use cases. I have also been responsible for algorithm research and software development for neural architecture search on ads recommendation models. Before that, I was a Staff Research Engineer in the machine learning research group at ARM Research. I completed my PhD in Electrical Engineering in 2018 at the University of California San Diego, supervised by Prof. Bhaskar Rao and co-advised by Prof. Truong Nguyen. Before UCSD, I completed my B.S. and M.S. (supervised by Prof. Pierre Moulin) in Electrical Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
I am lucky to be married to Katarina Fedorov.
