Summary
Sergei Chipiga is a founder and AI architect with 11 years of hands-on experience building production ML systems, automation frameworks, and developer tools from startups to scale-ups. Based in Tallinn, he led the technical design and implementation of Pipedrive’s AI-powered Sales Assistant and has moved from ML engineering into founding EVA-LLM, an open-source ecosystem for professional AI metrology. He blends deep backend and infrastructure skills (Kubernetes, Terraform, Spark, AWS) with a strong automation and testing pedigree—authoring multiple open-source projects and debugging core tooling across ecosystems. Sergei’s work pairs pragmatic product delivery with research-minded experimentation, demonstrated by publications and contributions to projects like xgboost, mlflow and promptfoo. He emphasizes AI as a mindset rather than just prompt or context tuning, focusing on measurable, auditable AI systems. A PhD-trained engineer, he brings scientific rigor to building reliable, production-grade ML and automation platforms.
