Summary
Alexander Melekhin is a Senior R&D Engineer and PhD candidate with 9 years of experience building production-grade computer vision systems for robotics and industrial video analytics. He has led end-to-end pipelines from data collection and multimodal dataset construction to FAISS-based retrieval, real-time inference and reproducible deployment, delivering strong localization and retrieval metrics (Recall@1 > 90%) and sub-second ATE performance. Currently at Sber Robotics Center, he focuses on perception and navigation while concurrently lecturing and mentoring students in machine learning and CV, having revamped course materials and run hands-on seminars. Comfortable shipping Dockerized prototypes and maintaining experiment reproducibility, he combines academic rigor from MIPT with practical product delivery—an engineer who moves research ideas into working robotic systems.
