Live CV for AI, analytics, and product leadership roles

Iaroslav Argunov

I build AI products and analytics systems that make hiring me feel obvious.

Product-minded AI and analytics leader with hands-on depth across commercial real estate, anti-fraud, automation, generative AI, and decision-support systems. I ship from strategy to product logic to execution.

How I work

I bring founder velocity with enterprise-grade rigor.

The differentiator is not just building models. It is turning messy domain workflows into product systems that save time, improve decisions, and create leverage.

AI products that ship

I turn LLMs, retrieval, decision logic, and domain data into products people actually use, trust, and pay for.

Analytics that drive action

I build the data layers, KPIs, reporting systems, and forecasting workflows that executives and operators can use immediately.

Leadership with execution depth

I lead teams, design architecture, and still go hands-on across Python, SQL, product logic, and user-facing delivery.

Case studies

The work that sells the story.

Five flagship cases chosen to show range: AI-native product design, customer-facing analytics, high-scale risk systems, and long-horizon automation.

AI Commercial Real Estate Agent

Head of Analytics / Product & AI Architecture Lead

Turned CRE discovery into a conversational, persistent decision-support workflow.

Designed an AI-native assistant that compresses broker, analyst, and researcher workflows into one interface for search, follow-up questions, property evaluation, cap-rate reasoning, rent estimation, and recurring sourcing.

What I drove

  • Architected AI-assisted property search with persistent context and follow-up reasoning.
  • Defined task-based sourcing logic for recurring monitoring and alerts.
  • Built financial intelligence patterns for value, cap-rate, and rent-based analysis.

Impact

  • 70-85% faster initial shortlist creation
  • 20-30% lift from search to qualified review
  • 60-75% less manual analyst effort per request

Additional signal

Strong supporting cases, not filler.

Beyond the headline projects, I have also built systems for brand-safe generation, document intelligence, video localization, voice search, portfolio optimization, and workflow bots.

Applied GenAI beyond demos

Built brand-safe visual generation, document intelligence, task-design copilots, video localization, and voice-search assistants as operational systems, not experiments.

Comfortable from 0→1 to scale

Founded products, led analytics functions, managed teams, and shipped tooling inside both startup and high-scale environments.

Research-backed and business-oriented

Combine product instinct, technical depth, and analytical rigor with published work, hackathon wins, and measurable outcomes.

Experience arc

Built through government analytics, high-scale tech, and founder-led product work.

The throughline is consistent: remove friction, raise signal quality, and build systems that people can rely on.
