Jackson Beagley is a multidisciplinary PhD candidate and engineer with eight years’ experience bridging engineering science, physics, and computation to tackle open-ended, system-level problems. He combines hands-on design and manufacture—suspension, PCB and aerodynamics work for Formula SAE—with technical roles in control, GNC and software development, from embedded GUIs to freelance projects. His research in physical oceanography and geophysics builds on a strong analytical habit of decomposing complex systems into mathematical subsystems. Based in Dunedin, he blends academic rigor (MS in Geophysics, dual BScs and a BE) with practical fabrication and testing skills, making him equally comfortable in the lab, workshop or codebase. Notably, he moves fluidly between field research and product development, bringing experimental insight to engineered solutions.
