Senior🎓
Top SchoolJeff St Jean is a mission-focused engineering leader with eight years of hands-on experience building flight software, ground systems, and embedded applications for small spacecraft. Currently Vice President of Mission Engineering at Turion Space, he rose through technical roles—designing cFS-based onboard software, architecting telemetry and ground station stacks with Postgres/Grafana/AWS, and delivering spacecraft to SpaceX for launch checkout. He blends mechatronics and computer science expertise from Western University with practical avionics experience, having led student teams to top SAE Aero Design finishes and founded a university satellite team. Known for curiosity-driven problem solving rooted in early leadership with the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, he pairs rigorous testing and CI/CD practices with a knack for automating mission operations. Outside work he channels the same hands-on curiosity into photography, sports, and tinkering with microcontrollers—skills that surface in both elegant prototypes and production-ready flight systems.
