Todd Mendenhall is a mechanical and systems engineer with over three decades of hands-on experience in designing, analyzing, prototyping, and testing electro-mechanical and robotic systems, currently leading Terra Engineering as Chief Engineer. He specializes in rapidly turning concepts into functioning hardware across domains from ocean to land to space, with recent work including laser communications, satellite phased-array GPS antennas, and automated target systems. Previously he led attitude control subsystems at Northrop Grumman, shepherding spacecraft designs from concept through on-orbit troubleshooting and redesign. Todd blends practical honesty about feasibility and schedule with deep aerospace-grade systems experience, and his background—MS from UCLA and BS from Cal Poly SLO—underscores a career that marries creative product design with rigorous, mission-critical engineering.
