Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolTyler Tolton is a Staff Machine Learning Engineer at Meta with 11 years of experience building cloud-native, highly available distributed systems and production ML for global organizations. He combines hands-on engineering in Python, Clojure, and serverless AWS with practical ML operationalization—particularly NLP, word embeddings, and imbalanced-data routing models that drove major cost savings at Pfizer. Tyler has led cross-functional teams and founded automation centers, authored hundreds of serverless microservices and production pipelines, and still contributes to open-source Clojure tooling (notably enhancing a CSS generator). He favors composable, observable architectures (Kubernetes, Kafka/Confluent, autoscaled EC2/Lambda) and brings an operator’s eye for caching, event decoupling, and resilience. A fast polyglot who enjoys functional languages and Rust, he pairs system-level architecture with product-minded feature ownership and a knack for translating business problems into deployable ML solutions.
