About Shubham

Hi, I’m Shubham. I’m a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Meta, working on Instagram ads ranking. These days I’m particularly interested in multimodal LLMs and AI agents.

Previously, I spent two years at Zefr building multimodal search and zero-shot classification systems, and before that worked across computer vision roles at Triangulate Labs, UIUC, Reliance Jio, and Pitney Bowes — spanning skin cancer detection, hurricane damage estimation from satellite imagery, and building footprint extraction at scale.

I firmly believe that Specialization is for insects, which is why I like having multiple interests — technology, startups, education, philosophy, and football.
