Top SchoolMichael Welsh is a Research Engineer and team lead with nine years of experience building ML/AI tooling that bridges academic research and production engineering, from data ingestion pipelines processing 10k+ hours of video to human-feedback UIs for labeling. Based in the NYC area, he has led rapid prototyping and integration efforts for Meta Reality Labs, developed novel pipelines synchronizing EMG with video, and improved mobile data-collection apps under tight timelines.
