Senior🎓
Top SchoolRichard Carey is a retired engineering leader with nearly three decades of hands-on experience designing embedded systems and leading cloud storage and video product teams. He led technical efforts from low-level Linux device drivers for MPEG/H.264 video in set-top boxes to principal engineering management of Azure Ultra Disk, demonstrating range from firmware to massively distributed cloud storage. As an Agile product owner and technical leader at Cisco and Synamedia he bridged product strategy and implementation, delivering cloud-based video components for service providers. He is proficient in C/C++ and embedded programming, and later applied that systems expertise to scalable cloud architectures and team delivery practices. Based in Georgia, he combines academic training from Georgia Tech with practical experience in machine vision, robotics, and storage systems—an engineer who moved from hardware registers to hyperscale storage. Despite retirement, his career reflects a rare continuity across embedded multimedia, cloud-native platforms, and product leadership.
