Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGwen Nealon is a senior staff aerospace engineer with nine years of experience specializing in preliminary systems engineering, modeling, and simulation for multidisciplinary aerospace systems. She has progressed from graduate research at Georgia Tech—where she led award-winning multidisciplinary missile design and machine-learning integration for agent-based simulations—to technical staff roles at The Aerospace Corporation and now SciTec, Inc., managing small teams that build system performance analysis tools. Her work spans MBSE for Mars ascent vehicles at NASA, optimization for airline schedules and ancillary-revenue studies, and practical software wrappers that bridge Python with legacy simulation tools to accelerate runtime. Gwen combines rigorous academic training (MS/BS, Georgia Tech) with hands-on development of analysis software and optimization workflows, making her adept at turning conceptual trade studies into reproducible engineering tools. Colleagues describe her strength as translating complex requirements into testable models and streamlined testing plans that save cost and schedule. Based in the Denver area, she’s particularly interested in applying modeling and simulation earlier in design to de-risk multidisciplinary architectures.
