Hi! My name is Nikita.
From the start of my career, I've been hands-on with everything from the ground up: designing prototypes, managing development teams and decomposing upcoming goals. Over the past four years, after transitioning from the corporate world to startups, I've focused exclusively on solving cutting-edge AI problems, while simultaneously earning my Master's and later my PhD degrees. This journey has made optimization my life's credo: achieving the most impact with minimal resources. Building things efficiently has, therefore, become a particular strength of mine.
Currently, I'm the Co-Founder and
CTO at
OHMYSYNT with experience from the 500 Global Accelerator.
I share ideas at conferences, learn how to grow a business and focus on creating something people truly need.
Since 2021, my responsibilities as CTO included:
While obtaining the PhD, I focused on Generative AI:
Text-to-Image and Text-to-Video personalization.
While completing the Master's degree, my field of research included
segmentation of infrared aerial images,
explaination of medical ML models predictions and
optimization of the training of Vision Transformer.
at YSC 2022
at IEEE SIBIRCON 2019
