Summary
Hunter Smith is a senior solutions engineer based in Portland, Oregon with 12 years of experience building software that empowers hardware and aerospace teams to focus on innovation. He blends low-level engineering—LabVIEW, C++, PXI/DAQ systems—with full-stack web and Python automation to deliver mission-critical control, test, and mission-control interfaces for projects including Starship. At Revel he now focuses on enabling hardware engineers with robust software platforms; previously he led security programs and test-system architecture across aerospace, semiconductor, and biomedical domains. Hunter’s background in education and product marketing at National Instruments gives him a rare mix of hands-on technical depth and user-centered curriculum/UX sensibility. An avid coder, gamer, and musician, he contributes to open-source projects and favors pragmatic, testable solutions to hard integration problems. Colleagues rely on him to translate complex hardware constraints into maintainable software and repeatable CI-driven workflows.
