Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Ignatov is an AI/ML engineer with nine years of experience building production-ready systems across startups, academia, and enterprise, now working on applied AI at SiteGround. He combines hands-on machine learning research—publishing work on acoustic event detection and optimizing models for Edge TPU—with software architecture skills from designing geospatial and OSINT systems for European defense projects. A seasoned iOS and backend developer, he has shipped features at scale at Smule and built cloud MLOps pipelines on Azure and Google Cloud. As a lecturer and co-creator of the elective "Python Programming" at Sofia University, he blends teaching with practical curriculum development and open-source collaboration (fmipython). Comfortable across the stack, he repeatedly bridges research and product: from prototype experimentation with advanced augmentation techniques to deploying quantized models for constrained hardware. Based in Sofia, he pairs academic rigor (Master’s in AI) with a pragmatic, security-conscious approach to building reliable ML-enabled software.
