Summary
Saud Alsaif is a software engineer with nine years of experience specializing in machine learning for autonomous systems, currently applying ML at Instagram within Meta. He spent the recent years building perception and scene-understanding models at Cruise and earlier led behavior prediction work at AutoX, bringing end-to-end expertise from data and modeling to deployment. Saud pairs industry experience with academic rigor from a Master’s in Electrical Engineering at Stanford and research roles that produced published work on antennas and AV testing. He’s comfortable translating research prototypes into production ML pipelines for safety-critical applications, and has a track record of shipping models that operate in real-world driving contexts. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he blends hands-on engineering with system-level thinking across perception, prediction, and validation. An under-the-radar strength is his cross-disciplinary background spanning communications, multi-agent systems, and AV evaluation, which informs robust, production-ready AI design.
