Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarl Saroufim is a Senior Software Engineer specializing in production-ready machine learning and NLP with nine years of experience building large-scale text and document understanding systems. Based in San Francisco, he currently leads ML development for Google's Document AI Custom Document Workbench after a multi-year tenure at Microsoft where he delivered multilingual sentiment, aspect-based sentiment, and key-phrase extraction models for Cognitive Services. He combines research-grade rigor from an MIT Operations Research MS with hands-on platform engineering—designing infra, model features, and end-to-end pipelines that take transformers and custom models into production. His background spans applied research (IoT anomaly detection at MIT) to enterprise ML productization, giving him a rare fluency across modeling, deployment, and domain-specific solutions for legal and financial documents. Notably, he has built both reusable toolkits and verticalized NLP models, favoring practical, scalable approaches that prioritize real-world robustness.
