Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Owen is a technical director with 11+ years of hands-on experience building embedded systems and computer vision solutions for drones and stabilized gimbals. He combines deep firmware expertise in C/C++ and Python with systems-level design—creating cross-platform video pipelines (stabilization, optic flow, tracking, H.264/H.265 streaming) and custom Yocto-based Linux environments that ship on multiple products. As a former manager and team lead at Teledyne FLIR and Lockheed/Procerus he has a strong record of delivering complex, safety- and performance-critical features on schedule while fostering tight-knit, collaborative teams. He is comfortable across the stack from MCU drivers and OTA updates to multi-stream video architecture and real-time estimation/control algorithms. Based in Vineyard, Utah, he brings a practical experimental mindset (SMD soldering, logic analyzers, oscilloscope) and a research-rooted background in UAV guidance and Kalman filtering that informs robust product designs.
