Emad El-haraty is an engineering leader with 17 years building high-throughput, low-latency platforms and developer-facing infrastructure for fast-growing companies, now leading PyTorch GPU acceleration and large-scale ML engineering at Meta. He has repeatedly scaled teams and systems—from being the first engineer at a VC-backed ad network that exited to creating mission-critical messaging and data warehousing platforms at Machine Zone, Postmates, and Lime. Emad blends deep systems expertise (Erlang, C++, distributed databases, ETL) with product-minded platform strategy that unlocked major partnerships and revenue streams. He’s experienced across the full lifecycle of platform engineering: kernel and compiler optimization for ML workloads, distributed training/inference, real-time messaging, and developer APIs for external integrations. Based in San Francisco with an MS in Computer Science, he’s known for turning complex, high-throughput requirements into reliable, production-grade platforms and for scaling engineering organizations past the 100+ engineer mark.
