Summary
Victor Medina is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience turning hard engineering problems into production systems across aerospace, large-scale payments, and AI. After shifting from structural analysis at Boeing—where he automated stress-analysis pipelines and CI/CD for engineering workflows—he built the backend PIX payment infrastructure at WhatsApp Brazil that processed over 20 million monthly transactions. Now on Meta's Applied AI team, he focuses on agent data pipelines and evaluation infrastructure to make LLM-based agents reliably better. He blends deep systems and full‑stack experience (Erlang, Hack/PHP, React, Python) with a pragmatic engineering mindset honed on safety-critical aerospace programs and high-throughput consumer payments. Based in Long Beach and trained at Carnegie Mellon, he’s equally comfortable optimizing latency-sensitive systems and designing evaluation frameworks that drive model improvement.
