Evgeny Pavlov is a Head of Machine Learning with a PhD in Computer Science and over 12 years of experience leading research-to-product engineering at companies like Samsung, Sberbank, and Brand Analytics. He blends technical leadership of 15+ engineer teams with deep hands-on expertise in AI assistants (GPT, LLaMA), LLVM/Clang compiler work, and on-device NPU compilers. His background includes shipping commercial R&D from Samsung TV features to 5G vRAN software and developing ML-on-code tools and runtime prototypes that attracted funding and productization. A prolific contributor to multimedia and system open-source projects (FFmpeg, GStreamer, VLC, OBS, .NET Core), he often bridges low-level performance engineering with applied AI. Notably, he has implemented AMD GPU video processing features upstream and built early on-device AI toolchains, demonstrating rare full-stack mastery from hardware-accelerated media pipelines to large language model tooling. Based in Russia, he combines academic rigor with pragmatic delivery of complex system software and ML products.
