Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIlia Glazkov is a Senior Manager in ML Production Engineering with 14 years of experience building ML tooling, backends, and infrastructure across GenAI, LLMs, computer vision, and AR/VR. He led architecture and productization efforts for the open-source Determined ML platform (acquired by HPE), driving distributed training, resource management, and experiment tracking at scale. Ilia blends hands-on systems and infra work—Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS/GCP—with ML engineering, contributing to ROCm, Horovod, DeepSpeed integrations and on-prem/cloud GPU orchestration. He has a track record of shipping production ML features from prototype to customer deployments, including a no-code RAG solution and LLM training performance improvements. Prior roles span startups to large tech (Jaunt XR, Apple, Thumb), where he built real-time volumetric pipelines, on-device ML telemetry, and AI meeting assistants. Based in San Carlos, CA, he pairs deep backend and performance optimization skills with a strong open-source and infrastructure background that few ML engineering managers maintain.
