Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrei-cristian Rad is a technical leader with 8 years of experience building production ML and data science systems, currently managing Machine Learning & Data Science at JWX in Cluj-Napoca. He combines hands-on engineering—authoring model training platforms on SageMaker, Airflow orchestration, and MLflow experiment tracking—with strategic product work that lifted publisher revenue and cut cloud spend. His work in programmatic advertising spans real-time bidding optimizations (including a QPS-reducing filter with no revenue loss) and predictive audience engines that improved CTR by up to 15%. He has applied similar MLOps rigor in healthcare and competitive intelligence, shipping semantic segmentation tools and entity-relation extraction systems. Pursuing a PhD in AI, he also researches robustness, fairness, and explainability for LLMs and VLMs, bringing a research-informed perspective to production constraints. Colleagues know him as a pragmatist who “eats text data for breakfast,” blending deep NLP instincts with measurable business impact.
