AI Research Scientist - Meta
New York City | ramin.audio@gmail.com
I studied at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and started in audio ML, interning at several industries, including the Advanced Digital Sciences Center in Singapore and Adobe. I later joined Dolby Labs, working on deep learning and audio codecs. Later, as the first hire at CurieAI, I helped develop models that detect respiratory symptoms from noisy audio, scaling the technology to hundreds of patients.
Looking to push myself into unfamiliar territory, I pivoted to NLP. At UnitedHealth Group, I was again the first ML lead on the team. I built natural language search tools for searching health benefits that became the foundation for an enterprise-wide semantic search platform. As the ML lead for the enterprise team, I trained language models from scratch, scaled the team to over 50 people, and reshaped how ML was applied to search through my experiences with sensory signals
At Precision Neuroscience, I applied cutting-edge signal processing and machine learning to brain-computer interfaces. Basically, translating brain signals into real-time actions. Currently, I work at Meta in the wearables team as an AI research scientist.
