Senior🎓
Top SchoolViktor Taranenko is a Principal AI Engineer and seasoned tech entrepreneur with 13 years of experience building and scaling product-focused engineering teams and platforms. He co-founded and led two startups to acquisition (Whisk by Samsung, Air HR by KarbonPay) and has a strong track record of translating complex technical vision into market-defining products. Viktor combines hands-on expertise in ML, NLP and production systems with recent work in computer vision and autonomous vehicle planning, delivering measurable gains such as a 30% reduction in motion forecasting error. Now based in London, he’s architecting an LLM-powered legal assistant to democratize access to legal documents while continuing to bridge research-grade models and pragmatic, low-cost infrastructure. Less obvious: he pairs deep distributed-systems experience (monorepos, real-time pipelines, streaming, ClickHouse/Cassandra) with entrepreneurial discipline from running profitable SaaS at low operational cost.
