AI Engineering Tech Lead — Semrush (Adobe)

Delivered an AI agentic tool for extracting and analyzing internal data from the BigQuery data warehouse, significantly simplifying data access for designers, frontend engineers, and product managers. The solution ingests data from databases, MCPs, Google Docs, internal portals, Slack messages, dashboards, and more. It is highly customizable through skills and enables automation of a wide range of tasks across the company.

Transformed the team (backend engineer, frontend developer, and data engineer) into highly independent full-stack problem solvers, enabling the delivery of multiple features per day through a tightly integrated and automated setup using Claude Code and Cursor.

Experimentation Lead — Space 307

Software company that provides a trading platform for a variety of financial instruments (700 employees). Tech lead and manager for the data science team responsible for the experimentation platform. Built from scratch an analytical tool to pull gigabytes of data from the analytical warehouse, run heavy-load calculations, and present the results, speeding up the analysis and reporting process from days to minutes. Implemented robust and powerful statistical tests. Developed the architecture of a new system for splitting users into groups, which was successfully implemented, allowing a large number of tests to run in parallel. As a result, the number of A/B tests grew from 5 per month to 20. Implemented an ongoing team training process and conducted over 50 interviews for analytics teams. Exceptional team = great results.
