I am on the job market (for an Assistant Professor or a Research Scientist position)!
I am a research scientist at MBZUAI (where I worked before as a postdoc), hosted by
Samuel Horváth and Martin Takáč. Previously, I worked as a junior researcher at MIPT and as a research consultant (remote postdoc) at Mila in the group of Gauthier Gidel. I obtained my PhD degree at MIPT, Phystech School of Applied Mathematics and Informatics, where I worked under the supervision of professors Alexander Gasnikov and Peter Richtárik. My research interests include Stochastic Optimization and its applications to Machine Learning, Distributed Optimization, Derivative-Free Optimization, and Variational Inequalities.
In 2019, I got the Ilya Segalovich Award (highly selective).
Action Editor at TMLR (from 2024).
