People in DSML Kazakhstan

Data analyst, ex-Bereke, ex-Beeline, currently at Tele2 Kazakhstan. Nazarbayev University '23 math major. Football, table tennis, and computer games enjoyer

Rustem Takhanov is a mathematician at Nazarbayev University whose research spans discrete geometry, combinatorics, optimization, machine learning theory, and theoretical computer science. His recent work focuses on high-dimensional kissing arrangements and sphere packings. In 2026, together with collaborators, he constructed a configuration of 841 spheres kissing a central sphere in 12-dimensional Euclidean space, improving a lower bound that had stood since the work of Leech and Sloane in 1971.

студентка направления «Математические и вычислительные науки», изучаю data science и машинное обучение. Интересуюсь анализом данных, Python, SQL, NLP и временными рядами. Стремлюсь развиваться в прикладном DS/ML и работать над реальными задачами.

AI/ML engineer who designs and ships LLM-backed systems end to end. Built a production retrieval-augmented memory service for an LLM agent from scratch: hybrid retrieval (BM25 plus vector cosine, fused with Reciprocal Rank Fusion), LLM-driven structured extraction with rule-based fallback, contradiction handling over an evolving knowledge store, and graceful degradation when the model backend is unavailable, all containerized behind a FastAPI service. I care about the parts that make AI systems survive contact with production: latency budgets, failure modes, retrieval quality, and clean service contracts. My foundation is real-time ML systems on real hardware (KAUST MSc, GPA 3.88), where I cut a perception pipeline's per-frame latency from minutes to milliseconds, and multi-model AI orchestration, including a 1st-place hackathon pipeline that gated heavy foundation models and a GPT-4o reasoning layer behind a lightweight filter for cost control. I am looking to apply this systems-and-orchestration mindset to enterprise LLM infrastructure and to grow into an architecture-owning role. Native Qazaq and Russian, professional English, based in Astana.

I’m currently developing my skills in Data Science, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning. I’m actively working on projects, learning modern tools, and looking to connect with others to exchange ideas, learn together, and contribute to the community.

Учился в KAIST бакалавр + магистратура по Aerospace & Electrical Engineering. Сейчас работаю в Cerebra как ML Engineer Готовлюсь к марафону
