EMC testing and laboratory management
At Airbus, I tested satellite and ground station equipment to MIL-STD-based internal plans. During eleven years at Element, I progressed from technician to laboratory manager, working across commercial EMC and environmental testing. I returned to Airbus to test and analyse spacecraft and payload hardware to MIL-STD-461 and ESA requirements. Subsequent roles included Director of Spacecraft Test at Mangata and aerospace and defence business management at Eurofins. I am now Lead EMC Engineer at Leonardo, supporting radar and combat air programmes.
