Summary
Martin Wawro is a senior software engineer with 25+ years of hands-on experience and over two decades in R&D, blending academic rigor with startup grit to build production-grade, high-availability systems. He co-founded and led a medical-imaging startup that shipped real-time 3D reconstruction, lossless streaming, and PACS integrations, and later architected high-performance spatial imaging and on-edge ML inference at Fyusion. Comfortable across the stack, Martin specializes in computer vision, medical imaging, compression and performance optimization for distributed and embedded platforms. He has driven teams through funding, productization, and go-to-market phases while also acting as principal investigator on applied ML research. Now at SpaceX, he continues applying efficiency-first engineering to demanding real-world systems. An underappreciated strength is his track record of porting research-grade algorithms into robust, low-latency production code across diverse hardware.
