University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Cubesat Program

• Urbana-Champaign, Illinois Area

• Flight Software Developer, Project Manager

  • Jun 2017 - May 2018

  Designing and developing the Command and Data-Handling systems of the Illini CubeSat program to: • Maintain operability of satellites especially in adverse conditions by emphasizing fault-tolerant design • Support multiple and varying scientific payloads • Provide up- and down-link capability between satellite and Earth over unreliable transmission medium (space) • Implement mechanisms for ground control to modify satellite behavior post-deployment The Illini CubeSat program, through the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, is currently developing multiple satellites for deployment as platforms for scientific and technological development. First deployment is slated for late 2017.
