## Work Experience
### Sr Software Engineer @ Walmart Global Tech
Jan 2019 – Present

### Software Engineer (Part-time Internship) @ Kuna Systems
Jan 2016 – Jan 2017
• Machine learning: Investigated algorithms from Scikit-learn library for detection of stationary
objects. Used results (4% missed motions) to improve threshold functions.
• Developed and implemented a threshold-based algorithm to enhance motion detection. Used
intersection-of-union algorithm for labeling objects as static/moving.
• Researched motion flow computation using OpenCV with CUDA acceleration. Identified
background subtraction as a suitable technique.
• Improved object detection speeds. Used background subtraction functions from OpenCV library
to select areas with motion.

### Software Firmware Engineer (Full-time Internship) @ Kuna Systems
Jan 2016 – Jan 2016
C++ unit tests: using Google Test framework for firmware components on Linux machine with
Ambarella A5s platform. Caught multiple critical bugs that has been fixed later. Increased unittest
code coverage by 19%.

### Research Assistant @ Prokhorov General Physics Institute
Jan 2014 – Jan 2015
• Measurements of Electromagnetic Surface Waves propagation.
• As a team member prepared experiment plan based on theoretical fundamentals.
• Collected data of tension of electromagnetic field, developed application to process measurements results, prepared data for presenting results as a graph.
• Participated in the Young Scholars'​ forum within the framework of the international conference RADIOINFOCOM-2015:
