I'm here to help you push boundaries by keeping your system in one piece, on and off the launchpad.T+1:13 PLT: Uh oh. Those were the last words of Michael J. Smith aboard the Challenger Space Shuttle, just before the vehicle broke up during ascent. Disasters like this are unfortunately not uncommon. Challenger, the Patriot missile disaster, Therac-25, and the Mars Polar Lander are just a few examples of complex systems going awry, with the mission or human lives on the line.Many of these incidents occurred because safety and resilience were treated as component properties rather than emergent properties of the entire system. That's why I incorporate functional safety and risk intelligence at the system and software levels of safety-critical and mission-critical systems to ensure mission success in even the most hostile of environments.As with most people, I go by many titles - systems engineer, safety engineer, researcher, and space exploration advocate, to name a few. I've successfully applied systems and safety engineering techniques to projects in the automotive, medical, and particle physics domains, not to mention just under two years of experience developing space technology... in my spare time. Off-duty you can find me tinkering on robotics projects of questionable utility, or exploring the Canadian wilderness.If you’re interested in grabbing coffee and talking shop, connect with me here on LinkedIn or reach me by email at spencerdeevy@protonmail.com
