Summary
Mark Dyehouse is a Senior Robotics Autonomy and AI/ML Engineer with 11 years of experience building autonomy, perception, and control software for aerial and robotic systems. Currently at Lockheed Martin, he leads R&D and implementation of AI-driven autonomy for aerial vehicles, combining research rigor with production-oriented engineering. His background blends robotics (ROS, ILQR, ergodicity, particle/Kalman filters), embedded systems, and big data pipelines (Scala, Spark, Kafka, AWS), enabling end-to-end solutions from sensors to cloud analytics. Trained in mechatronics and hands-on prototyping at Northwestern and CMU, he pairs theoretical active-learning approaches with practical skills in machine shops and rapid fabrication. He has a knack for translating research ideas into working systems—whether winning cross-functional hackathons or publishing conference work—and brings an unusual cross-cultural perspective from studies in Chinese language and international experience. Based in New Haven, CT, he balances deep academic foundations with pragmatic engineering that drives deployable autonomy.
