8 years · Meta · Data Engineering, Analytics & AI

Data & Analytics Engineer with 6+ years building production-grade pipelines, scalable data models, and executive analytics infrastructure at Meta. An AI-first engineer, I've delivered $14M in OPEX savings, pioneered cost measurement frameworks adopted org-wide, and engineered LLM-based automation that reduced audit turnaround by 70%.

I work within Meta's Privacy org, designing systems at the intersection of data reliability, regulatory compliance, and intelligent automation. Whether that's cutting pipeline runtimes, building self-serve metric layers, or wiring up AI agents to accelerate human workflows — I care most when the work creates leverage far beyond the immediate team.
