My name is Roman Vorushin. I am a Research Engineer at Google DeepMind, working on Gemini.

I fell in love with ML and AI back in 2011, thanks to the legendary MOOCs ai-class.org (Peter Norvig, Sebastian Thrun) and ml-class.org (Andrew Ng). I joined Google in 2012 to get into an environment where I could learn and push these technologies forward.

Before Google I was an early Grammarly employee, had my own startup, and worked in Kazkommertsbank. I am a lifelong learner, read a lot on my multiple Kindle devices (nowadays it’s a Kindle Scribe), and learn a lot from having coffees with extremely talented and passionate friends.

I used to have a technical blog in Russian (archived here). Now I plan to start writing longer technical articles about LLM training and artificial intelligence. I also post shorter updates on LinkedIn.
