Brian Barritt is a seasoned software engineering leader and CTO with 11 years of experience building wireless networking and aerospace communications systems, now guiding Aalyria’s Spacetime platform that orchestrates multi-domain networks across air, sea, land, and space. His career spans senior technical and managerial roles at Meta and Google (including Loon/Google[X]) and earlier leadership in Cisco WiFi engineering, plus applied research work for NASA Glenn. He combines deep embedded and systems expertise—ranging from implantable medical-device radios to billion-dollar WiFi products—with a track record of shipping constellation-grade network operations software used by commercial satellite operators and defense customers. Brian holds advanced degrees including a PhD in Computer Engineering and an MBA, and brings a rare blend of research rigor and product-focused execution that bridges open-source ecosystem efforts (Telecom Infra Project, Magma) with high-assurance aerospace deployments.
