Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJosef Biberstein is a PhD candidate in Aerospace Engineering at MIT specializing in controls and autonomous systems, with hands-on systems engineering experience across high-speed rocketry, deep submersibles, and space-imaging platforms. He has contributed to mission-focused teams at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, JPL, and the MIT Space Systems Lab, and founded a small engineering firm that honed his maker-oriented, build-first approach to problem solving. Equally comfortable with hardware and software, Josef blends rapid prototyping (often using 3D printing) with rigorous analysis to deliver reliable, flight- and dive-ready systems. Based in Freeport, Maine, he brings 26 years of practical experience and a lifelong appetite for learning—whether that’s climbing a peak, sailing offshore, or tuning an autonomous controller for a new mission.
