    About

    About
    AI/ML Engineer with 8+ years of experience building production GenAI and machine learning systems for enterprise search, workflow automation, speech intelligence, and model evaluation. I specialize in LLM agents and enterprise RAG, including hybrid retrieval, reranking, tool calling, routing, memory, fact-checking, source attribution, and response evaluation. Recent work includes an internal AI platform serving 28K+ documents and 150+ users, agentic analytics and requirements workflows, a real-time assistant processing 1,200+ calls per month, and evaluation and fine-tuning pipelines for LLM and speech systems. I work across the full product lifecycle - from problem formulation and data preparation to architecture, experimentation, deployment, monitoring, and adoption with engineering and business teams. Core stack: Python, PyTorch, LangGraph, LangChain, Qdrant, Hugging Face Transformers, PEFT/LoRA, Whisper, Docker, Kubernetes, MLflow, Airflow, SQL, and Kafka.

    ML Engineer
    • Developed LLM agents across 4 business functions-reporting, sales, operational analytics, and manager support-automating 8 recurring workflows and saving approximately 120 hours per month. • Built an executive AI agent that consolidated data from 7 internal sources, generated 6 recurring management reports, and flagged 5 deviation and risk categories, reducing the reporting cycle by 61.4%. • Developed a real-time call assistant processing 1,200+ calls per month; combined Whisper large-v3 / faster-whisper, Silero VAD, and pyannote.audio to extract 4 action-oriented outputs-key points, agreements, customer requests, and follow-ups-reducing post-call administration by 8 minutes per call. • Designed LangGraph/LangChain workflows across 7 orchestration capabilities-intent classification, tool calling, memory, routing, retrieval, fact-checking, and response validation-raising successful task completion to 86.2% and reducing unsupported answers by 32%

    ML Engineer
    • Implemented a RAG pipeline for enterprise knowledge access across 100K+ documents and 1,000+ users using Qdrant, BM25 + dense retrieval, multilingual-e5, bge reranking, and Qwen-14B-Instruct; achieved 0.87 Recall@10 and reduced unsupported answers by 42.4%. • Fine-tuned the 13B-parameter Vikhr model with PEFT/LoRA for 3 use cases-classification, structured extraction, and style-aligned generation-improving average format compliance from 74% to 94%. • Developed and optimized a Russian zero-shot TTS model, improving synthesized-speech naturalness by 15.43% on Mean Opinion Score and reducing synthesis time by 14.72%. • Designed an LLM/RAG evaluation framework spanning 6 quality dimensions: relevance, factual consistency, faithfulness, numerical accuracy, citation quality, and hallucination robustness; evaluated 8 model and pipeline versions per release. • Built a RuBERT NER + rules system to extract technical parameters from 500+ PDF documents per month, achieving 0.91 F1-score and reducing technical-report preparation time by 65%. • Trained a customer-request classifier on 120K historical tickets using TF-IDF + Logistic Regression and later CatBoost + fastText, achieving 0.87 macro-F1 and automating 72% of departmental routing • Implemented an ASR and topic-modelling pipeline for 250+ hours per month of video-conference trans, migrating from LDA to BERTopic and improving topic coherence by 28% to surface recurring discussion pain points.
