Mikhail Parakhin

I'm an executive with very extensive ML and coding experience (including perf optimization, assembler, distributed/cloud/big data systems). I know how to manage ~12000 people and make things happen. Being an entrenched industry veteran, I have very deep, first-hand experience of running the largest European IT company (including one of the largest Search engines and Ad networks in the world, Cloud Services, Smart Devices etc.) Being a Machine Learning/Coding/Management hybrid, I'm proud of taking top places in some of the ML competitions (3rd place in ICML/Yahoo ranking challenge, 2nd place in WSDM ranking competition), and also proud of the fact my ASM implementation of the memset/memcpy/memmove was used in Windows 8 and in Microsoft Cloud Computing platform (approved and checked in by Dave Cutler himself :-) ). Technical specialties: Machine Learning, Pattern Recognition, Data Mining, Big Data, C++ development, Assembler/Performance optimization, Distributed systems development, Web Search, Ads, Digital Assistants, Image/Video processing
