Vineet Dhanawat is a software engineer with 12 years of experience, currently building integrity and profile systems at Meta where he owns parts of the Single Owner Additional Profile initiative and infrastructure to combat misinformation at scale. He has led projects that handle 10B+ actions per day and single-handedly designed and implemented a User Penalty System that measurably reduced repeat misinformation impact. Comfortable at the intersection of product and backend engineering, Vineet crafts rules and formulas that translate policy into reliable, auditable systems while improving transparency for fact-checkers. Educated at BITS and UT Dallas, he combines strong distributed-systems instincts with product sensitivity and has repeatedly driven higher penalties during critical global events to curb harm. Based in Hayward, CA, he thrives in high-leverage roles where technical ownership and measurable outcomes matter.
