About Kobi Esmenjaud
Hello Recruiters, Colleagues, and Strangers! My name is Kobi Esmenjaud (pronounced: Es-men-show), I graduated with a B.S, Aerospace Engineering from UC Irvine and currently working at a superb start-up, ICEYE US!BAJA SAE at UCI pushed me from being a timid teammate to a leader of passionate engineering students. I excelled in my senior design project by collaborating with Team Leads, Professors and Advisors to restructure our team, responsibilities, and system requirements to enable better organization and communication. I oversaw our vehicle control and dynamics teams to study damping, stress-strain, vehicle data acquisition, driver control and testing procedures. Throughout this process, I led the decision to develop a Data Acquisition subteam and continued to develop our Project Management Team. In my last quarter, I decided to challenge myself by taking a Graduate Level course taught by Professor Gamero: Electric Propulsion. Where I saw a new perspective on low thrust systems. I am passionate about working on propulsion systems, vehicle testing, and control systems for space research, exploration, and developing new technologies!
