Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicolò Ormezzano is a systems engineering leader and hands-on software engineer with eight years’ experience building autonomy, GNC and embedded application software for unmanned robotics and electric VTOL aircraft. Now Head of Systems Engineering at SkyBridge after leading Arrival’s autonomous eVTOL software effort, he blends technical roadmap ownership and hiring with daily C/C++ and MATLAB/Simulink development on safety‑critical embedded platforms. His background spans research-grade mobility systems at ETH Zurich to flight‑test tuning and DO-178C workflows in startups, giving him rare end-to-end insight from algorithm design to aircraft integration. A builder at heart, he thrives in multicultural teams and keeps a “Just‑Do‑It” mentality that pairs rapid iteration with an insistence on engineering excellence. Notably, he couples control‑theory depth (EKF, optimal/classical control, motion planning) with practical powertrain and avionics experience gained earlier in automotive and FSAE projects.
