Summary
Petr Garmider is a data scientist with 8 years of experience, currently shaping personalization and analytics at Yandex Music after driving demand forecasting and replenishment tools at Yandex Market. He blends strong academic training (HSE CS & Economics, YSDA) with practical ML engineering—building neural forecasting models that improved metrics by up to 15% and end-to-end pipelines in pySpark and SQL. His background includes macroeconomic forecasting research (implementing FAVAR) and teaching probability, machine learning and econometrics, which informs a rigorous, reproducible approach to model design. Equally comfortable prototyping research ideas and productionizing them, Petr brings a rare mix of economics intuition and hands-on ML deployment experience.
