Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPol Mesalles-ripoll is an Aerospace Engineer II based in Boulder with a decade of experience combining computational hypersonics, fluid dynamics, and full-stack software development to advance modeling- and simulation-driven spacecraft design. He has transitioned research on rarefied aerothermodynamics at CU Boulder into applied work at SpaceNav, optimizing entry trajectories and aeroassist maneuvers with an engineer’s rigor and a developer’s pragmatism. Earlier roles building production web systems sharpened his ability to own the full development lifecycle and integrate cross-disciplinary tools—skills he now applies to robust simulation pipelines. Known for writing code that keeps satellites intact, he brings a rare blend of theoretical research, hands-on software engineering, and product-minded delivery to aerospace challenges.
