Summary
Cyrus Wachong is an engineering team lead with eight years of experience combining software development and biomedical engineering expertise, currently guiding engineering efforts at Kardium Inc. He has built robust Java applications for FDA submission workflows, created automated test suites for PLM systems, and improved manufacturing tooling for medical device production. His background in biomedical optics and ML includes GANs for OCT super-resolution, reinforcement-learning-based surgical needle control, and a thesis predicting diabetic retinopathy progression from OCT-A images. Cyrus blends hands-on coding, project management, and onboarding/documentation improvements to deliver regulated, high-quality products. Based in Coquitlam, Canada, he brings a research-to-production perspective that helps bridge hospital-grade imaging research with FDA-focused device software. An interesting stitch in his career is moving from developing clinical imaging ML pipelines used at Vancouver General Hospital to leading software practices that enable device approvals.
