Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolViktor Varkarakis is a Lead Machine Learning Engineer based in London with a decade of hands-on experience and a PhD in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from the University of Galway. He specializes in computer vision and deep learning, having developed production-grade DMS/OMS solutions, sensor-fusion models, and neuromorphic event-based vision systems for automotive and edge applications. At Xperi and Motorway he moved research into robust deployments, building training/deployment pipelines and MLOps practices that scale in real-world products. Now leading ML at Monzo, he blends academic rigor with product-focused engineering to ship privacy-aware vision models and efficient edge architectures. An underappreciated strength is his track record mentoring PhD researchers and translating cutting-edge research (e.g., iris segmentation and multi-modal fusion) into commercially viable IP.
