Mark Edwards is a Director of Engineering based in the UK with nearly a decade leading cross-functional teams to ship product-driven software and machine learning systems. He has scaled engineering for startups and major platforms alike—from building Audience Network video and LiveRail integrations at Facebook to taking video-first commerce app Cargo from concept to launch in under a year. His background blends applied ML, satellite-based environmental measurement, and ad-tech, reflecting a knack for turning research-grade models into user-facing products. A hands-on leader equally comfortable with front-end SDKs, backend services, and ML pipelines, he often operates at the intersection of media, measurement, and monetization. Notably, his career began in audiovisual production and media archiving, giving him a long-standing appreciation for rich media systems and operational reliability.
