Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSiamak Tavakoli is a Lecturer III at the University of New Mexico and a multidisciplinary engineer with eight years of recent professional experience and a two-decade career spanning academia, industry research, and embedded systems. He holds a PhD in Electrical and Computer Systems Engineering and has applied that research mindset to practical roles from lead firmware engineer at Microsoft to senior embedded and C-specialist contractor work on performance monitoring and smart-sensor platforms. His background blends teaching and curriculum delivery with hands-on development of UAV-based non-destructive testing, anomaly-detection algorithms, and low-level firmware for constrained devices. He has led R&D and engineering teams in startups and scale-ups, translating signal-processing research into deployable products such as shape-changing drones and sensor-equipped shipping solutions. Comfortable switching between classrooms, research labs, and production codebases, he brings rare depth across control systems, wireless sensor networks, and real-time embedded software. A less obvious strength is his long-standing habit of turning exploratory academic prototypes into delivered systems that carry through post-sale support and operational responsibility.
