Senior🎓
Top SchoolYordan Bakalov is a Design Engineer with 12 years of hands-on mechatronics experience focused on aerospace systems, currently at Sensata Technologies after multi-role engineering work at Dronamics. He has designed aircraft subsystems—from control surface mechanisms to fuel, brake, and steering systems—plus structural composites and certification-ready documentation. Yordan also developed avionics algorithms and a MATLAB/Simulink anti-skid braking model for UAS, bridging control software with mechanical actuation. Trained in Mechatronics, Robotics, and Automation at Fontys, he blends mechanical, electrical, and software disciplines to reduce risk and streamline aircraft integration. Based in Sofia, he pairs practical CAD and composite design skills with systems-level thinking, often operating at the intersection of rapid prototype development and certification constraints. An aerospace-focused mechatronics engineer who quietly combines hands-on component design with embedded control development, he excels at turning complex requirements into buildable, certifiable hardware-software solutions.
