From initial design through on-orbit operations this person is responsible for leading a phenomenal team of engineers in a collaborative effort to design, manufacture, test and operate chips for satellites that make our Nation safer.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Lead a team responsible for digital ASIC verification at block and system level.
