Alexander Chichigin is a consulting software engineer with 12 years of experience building practical, well-documented solutions across ML, GIS, embedded, and web systems. He combines research-grade rigor—PhD-level work and academic teaching—with hands-on engineering in languages from Haskell and Clojure to C++ and Python, often favoring simple, embarrassingly straightforward designs. His background spans predictive maintenance, optical recognition, GIS portals, and static code analysis, plus a history of performance work (20x speedups in contest settings) and participation in the ICFP programming contest. Comfortable bridging research, documentation, and production, he has restructured technical docs and published accessible summaries of AI research while implementing CI/MLops pipelines in industry projects. Based in Tbilisi, he is a "commit juggler" who values clear communication as much as elegant functional code.
