portrait of Darjan Salaj

Currently, I am a Senior Machine Learning & Big Data Engineer at inovex, where I bridge the gap between advanced analytics demand and enterprise-grade data platforms. My work focuses on building resilient, high-quality data ecosystems that deliver actual business value.

I specialize in the lifecycle of Data Quality, ensuring that both analytics and AI solutions are built on a foundation of integrity and maintainability. My core areas of expertise include:

I finished my PhD with Prof. Wolfgang Maass at the Institute of Machine Learning and Neural Computation at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz), working on biologically plausible working memory in spiking neural networks. At the same time I was freelance Deep Learning Consultant for the automotive industry at Virtual Vehicle.

I still enjoy doing a bit of research through suppervision of master theses and occasional publications. See the Supervision section below for more details.

For current list of my publications, visit my google scholar page.

In a previous life, I was working as a full-stack (django) developer at Institute of Human-Centred Computing (HCC).
