Summary
Omar Ozgur is a Staff Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable release pipelines and developer tools, currently focused on Reality Labs at Meta. He has progressed from hands-on software engineering to leading efforts that scale efficient AR/VR release workflows, drawing on prior work at Cruise where he built simulation and API platforms integrated with Kubernetes, CircleCI, and Okta. Comfortable across front-end and back-end stacks, Omar has deep experience with CI/CD, observability, and protocol-driven services (HTTP, RPC, websockets) that power complex products. He combines product-minded engineering with operational rigor to make advanced technology accessible—echoing his belief that cutting-edge systems should feel like “magic” to users. Based in Tustin, CA, he also brings a track record of mentoring and organizing technical communities dating back to running large student hackathons at UCLA.
