• Implemented and deployed an img2img FCN GAN for facial modification and photo stylization. This architecture was heavily utilized to produce some viral high-load filters executing on our backend with almost 200+ RPS• Optimized the proposed architecture for real-time on-device inference on iOS devices for video and camera processing (30+ fps on iPhone 11)• Created an internal solution for generation of large-scale synthetic facial manipulation datasets through StyleGAN2/3 latent codes translation• Participated in creation of the GIO photo app from the model’s side perspective. The app hit Top-50 Photo Apps in US App Store in a first week of its launch

• Created an open-source fork of Yandex utility called tomita-parser for extraction of structured data from texts. My fork was written in Java and allowed us to run tomita-parser on top of Apache Spark and process millions of client’s transactions descriptions in minutes• Created an internal library for Data Scientists and Data Analysts in my department to simplify the process of building data marts suitable for ML experiments• Participated in quality improvement of “System for Prevention of Operational Defects”. Improved the approach for predicting the rotation angle for scanned documents, which helped us to reduce errors in subsequent classification model
