Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlex Kedryk is a software engineer with 12 years' experience building high-throughput infrastructure and real-time processing systems, currently focused on research at Apollo Research in the UK. At Yandex he repeatedly optimized complex pipelines—doubling checkpoint upload speed for large-model training, quadrupling 3D reconstruction throughput, and designing scalable simulator test queues and inference clusters handling >12k RPS. He is comfortable across Python, Java and C++, with hands-on experience in video/CV pipelines, FFmpeg, Postgres, ClickHouse and profiling tools like Torch profiler. Concerned about existential risks from AI, he seeks roles where engineering rigor directly improves safety and reliability. An early background in test automation shows up in careful tooling and visualization utilities he builds to monitor live processing and debugging.
