Summary
Iurii Katser is a PhD-trained leader in industrial ML and advanced analytics with eight years of experience delivering predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and process optimization at scale. As Head of Advanced Analytics OPS and former Head of DS in mining, he has led multi-disciplinary teams (up to 15 people) and shipped 20+ projects and PoCs that drove over $45M in annual client revenue gains and measurable recovery improvements in Tier-1 plants. He combines hands-on R&D—authoring 15+ papers, creating popular open-source time-series tools like SKAB and TSAD (500+ stars total)—with operational know-how in deployment, MLOps, and shortening delivery cycles from months to days. A seasoned conference speaker, lecturer, and hackathon winner, he frequently translates complex time-series research into production-ready systems and benchmarks that the community uses to accelerate industrial AI. An uncommon strength is his end-to-end fluency across sensor-level correction, changepoint/AD ensembles, and computer vision for flotation, enabling measurable quality stabilization and rapid scaling across plants.
