Kenneth Lo is professional known for his systems and software engineering contributions in Aerospace & Defense industries. At his current role as lead software systems engineer at Anduril Industries, a cutting-edge technology company specializing in defense innovation by building a family of autonomous robotics products, powered by Lattice, that provide an integrated platform across land, sea, and air. His expertise in areas such as model-based systems engineering (MBSE), systems architecture, simulation & modeling, and robotics has been instrumental in developing advanced solution for national security challenge.
Mr Lo’s journey in the world of technology has been marked by significant milestones across various esteemed organizations. Prior to his current role at Anduril Industries, Mr. Lo honed his skills at Epirus as lead software system architect, where he architected and developed advanced high-power microwave weapon system for counter UAS mission. Leonidas, counter-electronics, family of products utilized software-defined technology in waveform optimization and configurable firing tactics to enable unmatched counter-electronic effects for a range of use cases that are imminent threats to the national security. He unlocked the secret of MBSE in using models to represent and analyze complex systems in capturing system requirements, design, behavior, risk, and test. He path-fined an integrated toolchains merging systems engineering and software engineering development lifecycle together via CI/CD infrastructures that can generate software architectural documentation and validation artifacts out of the model and source codes.
Before joining Epirus, Mr. Lo made notable contributions at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), where he led a group of systems and software engineers in building a satellite ground station designed for telecommunication with spacecraft and post-process remotely sensed Earth imagery data. Mr. Lo has achieved multiple personal and team awards at JPL in his achievement in applying MBSE to software engineering project. Kenneth’s career also includes stints at industry giants like Boeing and SpaceX, where he also practiced MBSE in various aerospace and defense products, spanning from next-generation aircraft system, to rockets to avionics, showcasing his versatility and expertise in pushing boundaries of aerospace engineering across diverse domains.
Mr. Lo holds a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from University of California, Los Angeles.
