Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVictor Gandarillas is an aerospace engineer and PhD candidate at UCSD with nine years of experience bridging multi-agent robotics, spacecraft systems, and flight-test operations. He currently contributes to large-scale design optimization for CubeSat swarms at the LSDO Lab and is expanding mission design expertise through the NASA Planetary Science Summer School at JPL. His background spans in-flight sensor calibration for Earth-observation satellites, F-35 flying qualities monitoring, and UAV hardware-in-the-loop testing, giving him rare end-to-end fluency from simulation to flight. Victor’s work blends multi-agent control theory with practical system integration, and he has a track record of reconstructing and validating complex launch and flight simulations against real-world data. Based in California, he pairs rigorous academic training with hands-on operational experience to tackle scalable space system challenges.
