Summary:

I am a hands-on CV/ML engineering lead with nearly 8 years of experience in startups and 4 years of leading experience with teams up to 5, mostly focused on image processing, image2image, GANs and now diffusion:

Recently, my company launched an app that utilizes diffusion models to transform user images into lifelike artworks. Previously I developed and deployed super resolution and image restoration neural networks which successfully served 2M B2C and dozens of B2B customers.

As I look ahead, I'm keen on delving into video, anticipating the emergence of video diffusion by the year's end, some sophisticated image generation, augmented reality, 3d asset generation, GenAI for games or other opportunities with potential to make a significant impact by creating masterpieces and long-term solutions within distinct industries that could become foundational within their niche.

I'm aspiring to progress in roles such as Tech Lead, Engineering Manager, VP of Engineering, or Head of AI within startup environments, but I'm flexible and can consider a hands-on position. I would appreciate the opportunity to connect for the future and would be eager to discuss potential use cases and challenges you're facing, and leverage my expertise to offer possible solutions, should you see a fit with my expertise.

I am located outside of the USA, but I have worked for U.S. companies throughout my career and seeking opportunities within the U.S. market working in EST and partially PST time zones.

If you have a contract work, there are people within my partner network (DevOps, Data Engineering, Graphics Designer, Middle-Junior ML/Python developers) with whom we can work on the problem together.
