Moises Nevarez

Moises Nevarez has a diverse work experience in the aerospace industry. Moises started their career as a Mechanical Engineering Intern at NASA Ames Research Center, where they designed and built a replica of a Lunar Micro Lander and served as a Team Leader. Moises then worked as a Mechanical Design Engineering Intern at Curtiss-Wright Flow Control. Following that, they were an Undergraduate Student Research Intern at Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

In 2013, Moises worked as a Graduate Student Researcher at NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration, where they evaluated the space environmental effects on composite over-wrapped pressure vessels for the International Space Station. Moises also assessed the risks associated with radiation damage for space exploration vehicles.

Moving forward, Moises joined Boeing in 2014 as a Research & Development Engineer. In this role, they specialized in high temperature composite materials, thermal protection systems, and low observable materials for spacecraft and aircraft. Moises contributed to the development of next-generation high temperature structures through modeling and prototype creation.

Moises then transitioned to Northrop Grumman Corporation in 2017 as a Systems Engineer. Moises worked on a large, long-term government program, collaborating with discipline leaders to incorporate aircraft design objectives into full-scale test models. Moises played a hands-on role in fabricating and installing these models at the National Radar Cross Section Test Facility.

In 2018, Moises joined Lockheed Martin Skunk Works as a Senior Research Scientist. Moises supported various efforts and programs related to analyzing, developing, and testing low observable aircraft platforms. Moises utilized electromagnetic analysis tools and CAD modeling software to determine the radar-cross-section of aircraft components and vehicles.

Most recently, Moises returned to Boeing in 2021 as a Lead Spacecraft Systems Engineer, specializing in radiation effects. Moises predicts the survivability of electronic and mechanical components for spacecraft and space vehicles, utilizing analytical tools to assess radiation damage and determine specification compliance.

Overall, Moises Nevarez has built a strong background in aerospace engineering, with expertise in radiation effects, low observable materials, and spacecraft systems.

Moises Nevarez obtained their Master of Science (M.S.) degree in Aerospace & Mechanical Engineering from the University of Southern California in 2013. Prior to that, from 2009 to 2012, they earned their Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from California State Polytechnic University-Pomona. In terms of additional certifications, Moises obtained a Top Secret Security Clearance from the United States Department of Defense in July 2019. Moises also achieved the Competent Leader and Competent Communicator certifications from Toastmasters International in March 2017 and October 2016, respectively. Additionally, they received the Fundamentals of Engineering certification from the Board of Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, and Geologists in May 2011.
