Work History

Software Engineer(IC4)

Meta
Menlo Park, CA
10.2024 - 10.2025
  • Spearheaded the Funnel Analysis Platform (0→1): Collaborated closely with Product Managers and Engineers to align on requirements, designing the architecture, and shipping the front-end using React dashboards.
  • Built and deployed interactive dashboards with React and GraphQL to analyze billions of queries, enabling engineers and PMs to visualize trends, and drive data-driven ML improvements.
  • Optimized and maintained the ranking infrastructure by implementing robust backend services in Python and C++, including data sharding, TTL policies, and internal load balancing to ensure scalability and high availability for ML pipelines.
  • Engineered asynchronous data pipelines and background jobs to aggregate and curate data, exposing the foundational data layer via GraphQL APIs.
  • Migrated the Minimum Viable Accessibility framework to Blok, shipping iOS/Android features across Facebook and Instagram, demonstrating a commitment to delightful user experiences.

Co-Founder

Prudent Scales Systems
Los Angeles, California
03.2023 - 09.2024
  • Prototyped data-driven calibration tools that measure equipment drift, analyze patterns, and forecast preventive maintenance to reduce costly downtime in industrial settings.
  • Piloted solutions with Precision Scales clients, improving compliance confidence, and reducing unexpected disruptions. (Impact: Positioned the venture as an innovator in calibration technology, with early customer traction.)
  • Recruited, trained, managed, and evaluated staff.

Software Engineer (Full-Stack & SRE)

Bamboo Health
Louisville, Kentucky
07.2021 - 02.2023
  • Created an automated state licensure integration system (Vue.js, Rails, OAuth) that streamlined compliance workflows, reduced errors, and saved approximately 6,000 hours per year.
  • Designed and built scalable backend APIs with Rails, leveraging microservices integrated with Kubernetes and AWS S3/SQS to improve throughput and reliability under high-volume healthcare workloads.
  • Led incident response for PDMP systems across 43 states using SumoLogic; automated recurring fixes with Rails and Sidekiq, improving system recovery.
  • Troubleshot and resolved software defects in a timely manner.

Projects

Vector Search RAG System for Unstructured Data
Personal Project github.com/pjavadi84/new-ai-project.git
• Designed and implemented a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline using Python to enable Large Language Models (LLMs) to query and synthesize answers from unstructured documents (e.g., PDFs).
• Developed vector search indexing for document content, leveraging high-dimensional embeddings and a
vector database (e.g., Chroma/FAISS) to ensure fast, accurate retrieval and context grounding.
• Established end-to-end data processing workflows for efficient chunking, embedding, and storage of documents, significantly expanding the LLM’s effective knowledge base.

Symbol Machines: Cognitive AI Architecture
Collaborative Research Project github.com/symbolmachines/sdk.git
• Collaborated on the design and implementation of a ”Digital Hippocampus” architecture to provide stateful, persistent memory for conversational AI, addressing the limitations of temporary context windows.
• Developed the core retrieval logic for a 5-Channel Hybrid Retrieval system (incorporating Semantic, Emo-
tional, and Temporal data) to enhance memory recall relevance and cognitive continuity.
• Engineered a Dual-LLM Topology to separate user interaction (fast response) from background memory
consolidation (asynchronous graph updates in Neo4j), significantly improving chat latency.
• Integrated Valence-Arousal-Dominance (VAD) vectors for emotional indexing of memories, allowing the system to retrieve information based on affective resonance, similar to human memory.
