Summary
Rasoul Asaee is a Staff Machine Learning Engineer with 11+ years of experience building end-to-end ML systems that translate research-grade models into scalable, cost-efficient production services. He has driven high-impact initiatives at Scribd—reducing costs 20%+, launching multiple LLM-powered RAG products with 40K+ MAUs, and cutting inference latency in half—while recently joining Meta to continue at-scale ML work. His background as a research scientist at Natural Resources Canada and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering gives him uncommon depth in quantitative modeling, techno-economic analysis, and policy-relevant energy systems, evidenced by NRCan innovation awards and large-scale housing-stock modeling. Comfortable across the stack, he combines model design, infra automation (Terraform, Jenkins, AWS), observability, and CI/CD to deliver production reliability and measurable business metrics. A seasoned mentor and cross-functional collaborator, he also modernized multi-language microservice communication and champions engineering best practices.
