I am a highly accomplished senior software engineer with over 30 years of expertise spanning advanced graphics programming, machine learning, and computational research. I combine deep mathematical foundations with practical software development skills, having earned a Master of Science in Physics from Moscow State University and authored 12 scientific papers on numerical methods.
My technical versatility is exceptional, with mastery across C/C++, Python, CUDA, and Java, complemented by extensive experience in GPU computing (CUDA, OpenCL), 3D graphics (OpenGL, DirectX), and modern deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch). I excel at translating complex research papers into production-quality software, particularly in computer vision, image processing, and real-time rendering applications.
Most recently at Microsoft (2020-2024), I led critical performance optimization initiatives for MS Teams, implementing GPU-accelerated video processing and image segmentation that significantly reduced power consumption. My work included watermark implementation, 3D rendering improvements, and cross-platform development across Windows and Mac architectures.
My prior experience demonstrates my ability to tackle diverse technical challenges: at Facebook, I developed AR/VR software and 3D scene reconstruction systems; at Align Technology, I created biomechanical simulation tools for orthodontics; and at AMD/ATI Research, I designed sophisticated graphics debugging and analysis tools. My work at ESRI and other firms showcases my expertise in geospatial visualization, parallel computing, and real-time 3D graphics.
My mathematical background enables me to solve complex algorithmic problems, from graph theory and optimization to neural networks and finite element analysis. I am currently engaged in LLM training work, reviewing and generating high-quality code samples, while pursuing independent projects in CUDA and deep learning. My combination of theoretical depth, practical engineering skills, and proven ability to optimize performance-critical systems makes me a valuable contributor to technically demanding software projects.
