David Avakian’s career in technology spans decades, blending creativity, technical expertise, and a passion for innovation. He began in 3D animation, crafting visuals for companies like Bayer (TV insert spot) and Pepsi (bottle washing machine), and worked on television graphics and video editing in the pre-digital era.

In 1999, David joined Digital Seas International (DSI), a pioneering start-up with 15+ employees that brought Internet Cafes to cruise ships, commercial vessels, and oil rigs. As one of two developers, he built the billing solution and front-end user experience, serving clients like Disney, Norwegian, Carnival, Holland America, and Princess Cruise Lines. His work evolved the platform from Internet Cafe workstations to wireless integration and mobile apps, showcasing his ability to adapt to emerging technologies.

David has a knack for creating apps from scratch and enhancing existing ones, with a keen eye for detail that led supervisors to rely on him to refine the look and feel of apps developed by others. His patience in debugging and optimizing code has been a cornerstone of his success.

For much of his career, David contributed to the Satellite Communications industry, primarily with Global Eagle Entertainment (formerly Maritime Telecommunications Network). There, he developed software for internal departments and external cruise line customers, describing the experience as both challenging and rewarding.

Since becoming an independent contractor in 2013, David has provided exceptional services to his clients. Recently, reignited by the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, he has embarked on a new chapter focused on AI-driven solutions and automations. Drawing on his deep software development expertise, David is exploring ways to create intelligent, efficient tools that solve real-world problems, from streamlining workflows to enhancing user experiences. His goal is to harness AI to build innovative applications that reflect his lifelong commitment to quality and creativity.
