Meisam Hejazinia is a Principal Applied Scientist with 11+ years building production ML and agentic LLM systems that measurably improve ops, analytics, and root-cause workflows. He’s shipped agent platforms and governance at Amazon and led LLM modeling, RLHF, and evaluation work at Google/DeepMind, pairing research-grade methods with production rigor. Earlier roles at Meta, Expedia, and startups show a rare blend of privacy-preserving ML (FL, DP, MPC), recommender systems, and revenue-driving experimentation that translated directly into business KPIs. A founder who has taken products 0→1, he prefers ops-heavy domains where ML moves the needle and architects pragmatic, cost-efficient solutions (self-RAG, micro-SOPs, LLM-as-judge). He holds a PhD in Quantitative Management Science with publications in ICML and SSRN recognition, signaling both deep theory and applied impact. Based in San Diego, he combines distributed-data engineering roots with a knack for rapid problem discovery to deliver measurable wins in quality, latency, and cost.
