Hey there! I'm Omar.

With 10 years under my belt as a software developer, I am currently a Staff Engineer at Meta, leading the iOS media processing pipeline for Meta smart glasses. With a Master's in Computer Science from Columbia University, I specialize in computer vision and graphics, aiming to enhance the capabilities of mobile and embedded devices through advanced technology.

My expertise centers on mobile graphics, with a strong focus on integrating computer vision, machine learning, and computational photography algorithms into mobile and wearable devices. I am proficient in using Metal, CoreML, Executorch, and Pytorch, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, innovative applications. I have also dabbled with Vulkan, OpenGL, Unreal Engine and Unity.

My passion lies in the realm of spatial computing, computational photography, and virtual/augmented reality.

Please note that I am ONLY interested in projects that involve the topics below, anything else will be ignored:

  • XR technologies (AR/VR/MR)

  • Graphics programming/research

  • Computer vision

  • AI for vision problems deployed in mobile or embedded contexts
