Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoseph Rogers is an engineering physicist and R&D systems engineer with eight years of recent experience and a multi-decade background in x-ray, vacuum, and radiation systems development for labs, medical devices, and space applications. He combines hands-on instrument design and prototyping—ranging from x-ray tube optimization and linac test rigs to microsatellite platforms—with practical leadership as a certified instructor and former Coast Guard officer who once led a patrol boat. At NASA Ames he researches acoustic sensing for microgravity fluid behavior and has previously driven acoustic liquid-volume measurement work for space tanks, demonstrating a knack for translating physics into robust experimental systems. He’s also an accomplished educator and trainer, having built award-winning technical programs and taught physics from community college to high school. Known for creative problem solving and cost-saving initiative (including a role that saved $250K/year), he brings an interdisciplinary, safety-focused approach and a passion for applied research and mentoring.
