Mikhail Kovalchuk
@mikhailkovalchuk
AI language specialist and prompt engineer building bilingual, evaluated LLM tooling.
What I'm looking for
I’m a linguistics graduate with a daily, hands-on relationship with modern LLMs—ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, Grok, DeepSeek—and I use them to ship real outcomes, not just demos. I direct AI tooling end-to-end: from product idea and UX to working prototypes, automations, and bilingual content.
In my current role, I do AI data annotation and LLM response evaluation: I review, compare, and improve model outputs in English and Russian against project guidelines. I focus on structured quality feedback—accuracy, clarity, tone, and instruction following—so the results are dependable for training and deployment.
Alongside evaluation work, I build AI-assisted products and operational workflows, including custom GPT-powered Telegram bots and end-to-end Telegram channel automation. With an applied linguistics foundation and an operator mindset, I’m seeking remote contract or full-time roles in AI training, Russian copyediting, LLM evaluation, prompt engineering, or AI-native content operations.
