Research Scientist at Meta
Menlo Park, California, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolParameswaran Raman is a Research Scientist with 13 years of experience designing and optimizing large-scale machine learning systems, currently focused on algorithms for pre-training LLMs at Meta. He has led efficiency and systems co-design work for AWS Deep-Engine Science at Amazon, developing large-batch training, 3D parallelism and optimization techniques that accelerate real-world LLM pre-training. His academic work includes scalable, distributed inference and optimization methods (DS-FACTO, ESVI, DS-MLR) from a PhD in Machine Learning, giving him deep expertise in hybrid model-data parallelism and lock-free asynchronous algorithms. He blends research rigor with production impact—shipping dialog and recommender models for Alexa and Twitch earlier in his career—and has a track record of turning distributed ML theory into deployable systems. Based in Menlo Park, he brings rare fluency across statistical machine learning, systems engineering and practical large-scale training tricks that materially cut cost and time to train.
