Summary
Bill Schindel is a systems engineering leader and entrepreneur with decades of experience designing embedded systems, large-scale network operations, and cross-industry engineering processes spanning aerospace, telecommunications, medical devices, heavy equipment, and energy. As president of ICTT System Sciences since 1995 and co-founder of Applied Computing Devices, he led development of embedded processors deployed across a quarter of North American carrier central office nodes and pioneered automated carrier NOCs. He began his career at IBM Federal Systems designing avionics and later earned tenure as a faculty member at Rose-Hulman, where his research extended Kalman-Bucy filters to adaptive control and estimation. Bill blends hands-on hardware and software design with executive experience advising major clients such as Caterpillar, Eli Lilly, Raytheon, Roche, and the DoD. He has repeatedly bridged academia, industry, and product development to boost innovation system productivity—an uncommon combination that underpins his consultative approach to complex systems. Based in Terre Haute, Indiana, he continues to lead ICTT’s systems engineering practice while maintaining deep technical roots.
