About

hi there! 👋 my name is stanislav. i grew up in kyrgyzstan and came to the u.s. to pursue my bs/ms in cs & business at lehigh university.

today: building a forward-deployed engineering team to help enterprises solve real operational problems (stealth), helping kids learn math and cs at @sanimektep, and sourcing deals @flashpointvc

i'm actively seeking ai research & development internship opportunities for summer 2026, particularly in applied ai for industrial and energy systems. i'm drawn to teams that push the boundaries of what's possible with machine learning and computer vision, solving complex technical problems that have real-world impact.

i occasionally write about ai applications and product case studies on X -> stay tuned.

previously: technical product manager at freshpet (special projects), early-stage vc, computer vision research (lehigh × u.s. army research lab) where i worked on deep learning models for visual recognition and analysis, robotics (world championship), and professional judo athlete (black belt, 10+ years).

reach out at stanislav.li@lehigh.edu for my full resume.
