Lucas Doyle

Edge ML Infrastructure

• Led end-to-end design and deployment of embedded video ML pipelines powering Samsara’s AI dashcams (2M+ devices in the field).

• Shipped safety-critical features (e.g. tailgating, rolling stop, lane departure) running on resource-constrained hardware.

• Built QA device farms, shadow testing systems, and firmware infrastructure for rapid iteration of on-device ML.

• Spearheaded offline evaluation pipelines with multimodal inputs (video, IMU, GPS, hardware-in-the-loop simulation / emulation).

• Designed debugging and telemetry tools to improve observability across firmware and cloud systems.

Drone Platforms & Aerial Robotics

• Built core technologies for autonomous drone systems used in insurance and mining industries.
• Developed applications for configuring and flashing avionics on fixed-wing and multirotor drones.
• Built geospatial data processing pipelines and survey-grade mapping workflows for large-scale aerial datasets.
• Contributed to system-level integrations during M&A, driving engineering alignment across platforms.

Industrial Robotics

• Early engineer at a Japanese robotics startup, developing the MUJIN Controller for robotic arm workcell planning and optimization.
• Built real-time customer UIs with WebGL and WebSockets for bin-picking and industrial automation systems.
• Collaborated with multinational robotics engineers and deployed solutions for clients including Canon and Honda.
