Pavel Kucherbaev is a data science leader and founder with 13+ years of experience bridging academic research and product-driven ML solutions, currently based in Amsterdam. He has led teams at Atlassian and Booking.com to reduce customer support friction and optimize demand-supply strategies, and his academic background includes a PhD in Human Computation with publications in ACM CSCW and AAAI HCOMP. A serial entrepreneur, Pavel co-founded Codesign (10k+ users) and consumer-facing ventures like Univerius, and has hands-on engineering roots demonstrated by front-end open-source work such as a multi-network social feed plugin. He combines rigorous experimental research on crowdsourcing and conversational agents with practical product delivery, often focusing on worker experience and quality control in human-in-the-loop systems. Less obvious: he organized a professional human computation community of 200+ members and has repeatedly moved between startup building and research-led problem solving.
