Iaroslav Omelianenko is a seasoned software engineering advisor and CTO with over two decades of hands-on experience building mobile, cloud-native and high-performance distributed systems. He combines deep research credentials in AI—neuroevolution, genetic algorithms, reinforcement and deep learning—with practical MLOps and SDK design work at Comet, authoring Python, Java and R tooling for production ML. A full‑stack practitioner fluent in Java, Objective‑C/Swift, Go and Python, he also architects scalable microservices and cluster solutions using Docker, Kubernetes, Spark and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, IBM). He’s an active open‑source contributor to prominent ML projects like Ultralytics YOLO, where he improved CometML integration and model visualization. Notably, he pairs curiosity-driven research (quantum computing on IBM Q, brain–computer interfaces) with product delivery, having led dozens of client projects from concept to release. Based in Kyiv, he’s equally comfortable mentoring engineering teams and rolling up his sleeves to implement complex algorithms in production.
