Summary
Katharine Lundblad is an electrical engineer and research staffer with 11 years of hands-on experience in RF systems, phased-array antennas, and hardware-software co-processor design, holding a BSECE and MSEE from the University of Washington. She designs RISC‑V/SystemVerilog accelerators that move from FPGA emulation to ASIC integration and has practical RF characterization experience with HFSS, ADS, VNAs, and automated test tooling. Her work spans industry and lab settings—from MIT Lincoln Laboratory and Lockheed Martin to Pivotal Commware—where she bridged hardware and software for beamformers, smart power harvesting, and SPI driver toolchains. Based in El Segundo, she combines a research-first mindset with product-focused engineering and pursues W‑band wireless device innovation as a career direction. An avid coach outside the lab, she brings long-term leadership and training experience from competitive swimming programs, reflecting a disciplined, team-oriented approach to complex engineering problems.
