Senior🎓
Top SchoolShivam Patel is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer in Mountain View with eight years of experience building and researching applied AI systems, currently improving retrieval and ranking for RAG-enabled LLM workflows at Apple. He previously led ML work at Google Ads, applying neural architecture search, privacy-preserving ML, and LLM-based feature engineering to large-scale recommendation systems. His research background spans Cambridge, Mila, Caltech and MIT, where he developed agent-based models for AI research dynamics, multimodal transformer architectures for video understanding, and mathematical formulations of ML—work that bridges theory, policy, and systems. Comfortable across a wide toolset (TensorFlow, Torch, Caffe, Python, C/C++, Matlab, MongoDB) and with a strong mathematical bent—he has published collaborative research with top institutions and pursued deep interests in analytical number theory and Ramanujan mathematics. An active contributor to open-source projects and competitive programming (top 31 globally on Project Euler + Hackerrank), he combines rigorous algorithmic thinking with production engineering to deliver scalable, research-informed ML features. Notably, his profile pairs high-impact industry delivery with a continued appetite for theoretical work in mathematical algorithms and ML for logic.
