Prannoy Pilligundla

Senior Software Engineer at Meta, building LLM foundations for recommendation systems.

I work on Meta's Recommendation Systems team, building LLM modeling foundations. Previously at Meta, I worked on Ads Model Serving, architecting inference platforms that serve billions of predictions. Before Meta, I spent four years at AWS building cloud ML platforms like Panorama and Lookout for Vision, and started my career at NVIDIA working on CPU architecture.

I have a Master's in Computer Science from UC San Diego, where I researched neural network quantization and compiler optimization under Dr. Hadi Esmaeilzadeh. My work has been published at ICML, ICLR, and NeurIPS.

I did my undergrad at BITS Pilani in India, where I was a two-time Google Summer of Code participant—porting jor1k to support RISC-V architecture with LowRISC, and building a LyX to Word converter.
