Summary
Annie Gao is a software engineer with eight years of experience building scalable, full-stack systems and machine learning infrastructure, now at Meta in Mountain View. She has driven ranking and safety work on Facebook Newsfeed and built end-to-end reinforcement learning pipelines and internal ML tooling during internships at Facebook and Google. A Yale BS/MS graduate, Annie reduces production complexity—she led an intern project that cut local codebase redundancy by 25%—and combines rigorous engineering with a curiosity for nontechnical pursuits. Unusually for an engineer at her stage, she spent a year as a music fellow touring Europe, reflecting a discipline for long-term projects and creative collaboration.
