About Vivek Verma
Focus Areas: Recommendation & Ranking Systems, Graph Machine Learning, Social Product & Platform Integrity, Trust & SafetyI have over 7 years of experience in architecting and deploying large-scale machine learning solutions, with a focus on recommendation, ranking, and graph-based systems. As a founding engineer at Threads, a Meta platform, and the tech lead for the Graph Relevance/Ranking team, I developed the core recommendation engine and ranking stack from scratch and established connection graph strategies. By applying advanced graph optimization and multi-task learning models for Instagram and Facebook integration, I played a key role in driving user growth and engagement while helping to shape the ranking vision for Threads.My contributions at Meta also include developing Facebook\'s friending recommendations aimed at enhancing platform integrity and driving growth, optimizing promotional products, and improving notification relevance and ranking. At Visa, I was responsible for engineering mission-critical data systems for machine learning in finance, focusing on fraud detection and data integrity. Additionally, I have developed advanced machine learning models (including LLMs and GNNs) that have significantly reduced unwanted content.I hold a Master’s degree in Machine Learning from Georgia Tech and possess a strong technical foundation in advanced machine learning, including deep learning (PyTorch), graph technologies, large-scale data processing, and Python. I have experience leading complex projects and collaborating with executive, product, and engineering teams to deliver AI-driven solutions that support business objectives.The best way to reach me is via email at v••••••••@gmail.com.
