Jack Goetz is a Staff Research Scientist at Meta with a decade of experience building and deploying multimodal AI assistants for AR and VR hardware. He fine-tunes large language models, designs custom deep learning architectures for NLP, and owns parts of the training-to-production pipeline and runtime logic across languages and countries. His PhD in Statistics from the University of Michigan underpins a research-driven approach to active learning, sequential decision making, and privacy-preserving methods like federated learning. Jack combines theoretical rigor with pragmatic engineering—optimizing models for real-world constraints on edge devices. Based in Boston, he brings cross-disciplinary fluency between research and product teams, focusing on quality and feature expansion in production AI systems.
