ABOUT SEAN BAZZOCCHI
Aerospace engineer specializing in flight dynamics, controls, and data-driven modelling, with 9+ years taking unmanned aircraft from concept to flight. I’ve led multidisciplinary efforts across high-fidelity modelling, SIL/HIL, autopilot integration, flight test, and performance validation, with a consistent focus on closing the loop between models, control laws, and real flight results.I’m currently a Staff Engineer, Vehicle Modelling & Simulation Analyst at Archer Aviation, working on simulation and modelling to support development and decision-making across the vehicle lifecycle.Previously, I directed flight campaigns on subscale BWB demonstrators, led hybrid-propulsion quadrotor demos for NATO, and headed integration and flight testing for Canadian CUAS interceptor programs.Tools and domains: system identification, flight dynamics modelling, MPC/adaptive control, MATLAB/Simulink, Python/C++, PX4, Piccolo, ROS 2, CAN, GNSS, and electric/ICE-hybrid/jet and fuel-cell propulsion. I hold advanced RPAS and VDS pilot licences.I like hard flight-science problems, fast iterations, and building teams that deliver reliable vehicles that meet mission needs.
