Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrad Humphreys is a systems engineering leader with 12+ years of aerospace experience and a 25+ year career background spanning spacecraft GNC, dynamics, controls, and flight systems integration. Currently leading flight systems integration for NASA’s Power and Propulsion Element, he provides technical direction, FDIR leadership, and cross-discipline verification for a high-profile lunar Gateway program. He has deep hands-on experience developing GN&C simulations (Trick, Matlab/Simulink), converting flexible-body Nastran dynamics into state-space models and auto-coding them into C++ for flight simulation. Previously he led a multidisciplinary team building hardware-in-the-loop control systems, microprocessor/FPGA real-time controllers, and human-rated vibration isolation systems, and holds multiple patents from that work. Brad excels at bridging contractor and agency teams to resolve complex interface and verification challenges, and he often translates detailed dynamics models into practical flight-ready software and test artifacts. Based in Lakewood, Ohio, he combines academic rigor (MSME) with decades of applied engineering across space and aviation hardware.
