I focus on improving PREQ (Perf/Reliability/Efficiency/Quality) for the Media Composition and Ingestion Android SDK, which is used across Family of Apps for rich media creation.
Some recent projects -
• Led client video infra sdk adoption in IG Direct and Messenger (Open and E2EE) for transcode & upload stack, resulting in a 28% and 6% improvement in publish success rate respectively.
• Improved color metadata preservation rate in encoded video from 72% to 85% in Instagram and from 42% to 47% in Facebook for Android, ensuring higher-quality user uploaded media content.
• Reduced thumbnail strip load latency in Facebook Reels’ preview player by 18% by optimizing the video transcoding pipeline’s demux-decode loop, thereby enhancing user experience.
• Led cross-org initiative to successfully ship IG Reels’ ’Remove silent regions’ feature, a popular editing technique using low level ML Audio classifiers.
