Work
Sr Machine Learning Engineer II
Mar 2022 — Nov 2025Credit Karma · Oakland, CA
- Founding member of the 4-person team that set Credit Karma's long-term GenAI architecture; the design scaled into a dedicated org and platform strategy.
- Unblocked a stalled high-priority initiative with a new systems design: ~$1M/year saved.
- Ran the TensorFlow 1.x to 2.x migration across 15+ teams: ~90 production models retrained, preprocessing 30% faster, training time down 20%.
- Launched the LLMOps platform and post training infrastructure
- Architected the Query Filtering Layer for Credit Karma Assistant: Intent Detection
- Cut model launch timelines 50%.
- Beyond Credit Karma, volunteered with the Intuit Research team on temporal memory for fintech: built the pipeline extracting temporal events from financial documents and led a comparative analysis of memory frameworks — Zep, Mem0, HippoRAG, Letta.
Software Development Engineer II
Mar 2017 — Mar 2022Yahoo Research · Sunnyvale, CA
- Built the relation extraction pipeline turning raw Wikipedia text into subject–predicate–object triples — a transformer model trained with distant supervision, 85% accuracy on the top 15 relations. Knowledge graph coverage up ~73%.
- Built the sports event and rumor extraction system, served in production through Triton — bootstrapped training data from a small editorial seed set with weak supervision, shipped a multi-label CNN topic classifier and player-level timelines. CTR up 105%, conversion up 7.74%.
- Extended the BRAT annotation tool into a labeling workflow adopted by Yahoo's data teams.
