Tim Makarov is a pragmatic engineering leader with 13 years of hands-on experience building safety-critical avionics, embedded systems, and production computer vision pipelines. Currently a Lead Computer Vision & AI Engineer, he designs and optimizes real-time CV/AI algorithms for next‑gen game streaming while maintaining deep expertise in performance tuning, ONNX/CUDA acceleration and system benchmarking. His background includes leading full lifecycle IFE platform engineering for commercial aircraft—creating custom ArchLinux-based RAM-bootable OS images, CI pipelines, and secure VPN-backed media delivery—so he blends low-level systems craftsmanship with applied ML. Comfortable from firmware to cloud, he has repeatedly delivered auditable, regulation-compliant software (DO-178C/ARP4754) and personally field-tested avionics installs, showing a rare mix of lab, aircraft, and product deployment experience. Based in Dilijan, Armenia, he pairs an astronomical education with a long arc of practical R&D and systems integration, favoring measurable performance improvements over theoretical novelty.
