William Pack’s Summary

A Mathematician by education, I've worked over the past 7 years as an Aerospace Systems Engineer. The crux of my experience is in performance analysis, algorithm development, mathematical modeling, and simulations. However, I also have experience leading field demonstrations, leading analysis teams, conducting trade studies, developing requirements (definition, allocation, and flow down), as well as interfacing with customers. I'm currently a lead analyst and systems engineer for two EO/IR system development efforts for a large defense contractor in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. My current responsibilities include oversight of modeling, analysis of data, algorithm development for characterization of EO/IR sensor systems (Non-uniformity Correction, 3D Noise Analysis, NETD, SITF, MTF, MRT, Optics Distortion Correction), and leading field hardware demonstrations and data collections.
