Top School
Gonzalo Cobos is a bilingual mechanical engineer and flight test engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience across manufacturing, structural analysis, and flight test roles at Boeing, grounded in a cum laude BS from the University of Florida. He brings practical skills in systems integration, weight & balance tracking, test planning, and producibility, informed by earlier work designing electrical systems and CAN networks for a formula-style racecar. Comfortable bridging design, manufacturing and validation, he has led cross-functional problem solving and introduced tooling and Lean methods on the production floor. An active maker and open-source contributor, he developed a Python plugin for the popular bCNC project that implements geometric jigsaw generation and robust arc handling to avoid G-code errors. Having emigrated from Spain to study in the U.S., he combines technical rigor with a global perspective and a sustained interest in mentoring and community impact.
