Senior🎓
Top SchoolRajiv Govindjee is a software engineer with 10 years of experience specializing in guidance, navigation, and control for autonomous and safety-critical aerial systems. He combines EECS training from UC Berkeley and an MS in Aerospace Engineering from UMich with hands-on flight automation work at Wing and spacecraft PNT software at Xona. His background spans perception and interpretability for on-vehicle LiDAR segmentation, safe visual perception research for aerial robotics, and low-level controls implemented in C++, MATLAB/Simulink, and Python. Beyond software, he has led PCB instruction and rocket systems engineering, giving him uncommon depth across hardware, firmware, and system safety. Colleagues describe him as someone who translates rigorous academic research into production flight systems that make planes—and satellites—operate autonomously and reliably.
