Gabriel Torres is a founder and technical leader with 11+ years building aerospace, remote sensing, and geospatial software and hardware solutions. He has led product development from research to acquisition—co-founding MicaSense (acquired by Parrot/AgEagle), leading Amazon Prime Air launch programs, and overseeing systems and release engineering for uncrewed aviation at AURA. Comfortable both in the lab and at scale, he blends Ph.D.-level aerodynamics expertise with hands-on backend and geospatial software development to deliver integrated sensing and robotics products. Currently steering a stealth startup focused on sustainable aquaculture, he brings a rare combination of program management, systems engineering, and entrepreneurial grit. Notably, his career repeatedly bridges defense- and commercial-grade UAS development with data-driven remote sensing platforms.
