Summary
George Thomas is an electrical and firmware engineer with 14 years of multidisciplinary experience designing and delivering power and embedded systems for aerospace and consumer products. At NASA Glenn he led development of modular grid-forming inverters for planetary surface power, architected droop control logic, and implemented significant VHDL and MATLAB modeling used to move projects from concept to testable hardware. He also brings hands-on firmware and system integration experience from a consumer wearable mouse project—writing 8051 C firmware, fixed-point DSP for IMU-based tracking, USB drivers, and cross-platform utility apps. Comfortable bridging research and productization, he has distributed sensitive R&D software via Docker to protect IP while enabling collaboration, and mentors junior engineers in HDL, DSP, and embedded firmware. Based in Solon, Ohio, he now consults locally on technical feasibility and economic analysis tools for waste heat recovery, blending technical depth with practical business impact.
