Omkar Manjrekar is a Machine Learning Engineer with nine years of experience building production ML systems and infrastructure, currently focused on speech AI at Otter.ai after shipping natural language search capabilities at ThoughtSpot. He has hands-on experience training 10B+ parameter LLMs for BI use cases, integrating models into product, and owning data engineering and production search pipelines. His background includes ML system design at Meta where he improved multimodal classifier precision and recall and built embedding-monitoring dashboards that revealed previously unknown failure modes. A Stony Brook master's graduate with strong academic grounding in ML, CV, and NLP, he also taught graduate ML coursework and mentors students through assignments and projects. Omkar combines research-caliber modeling with pragmatic engineering—moving prototypes into scalable, monitored deployments—and his GitHub motto “Thinking slow and slower!” hints at a deliberate, experimental approach to problem solving.
