Research Associate
Overview
I am a Research Associate working on various problems in engineering, research and software development. Currently I am working within Cardiff NLP Group exploring the potential of NLP for real-world applications, as well as enhancing the understanding of NLP technology and language models. I am dedicated to finding creative solutions and have a genuine curiosity and enthusiasm to work with a multi-disciplinary research team in computer science.

Biography
I got my Master of Science degree in 2013 at Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology in aerospace research while being involved in the process of aerodynamics calculations of the new spacecraft. For my PhD research, I graduated from Birmingham City University in 2020, where I worked on graph-based modelling approach for reducing complexity in model-based systems engineering environment and design engineering automation. I have experience in working in software engineering sector and the aerospace industry. I was a senior design engineer at an engineering corporation developing airships. Later I worked as a software developer at Exergy UK with prime focus on full stack web development. Also, while doing my PhD research I worked as a visiting lecturer teaching mathematics and numerical analysis to undergraduate students.
