Stewart Austin

LWCM Project Engineer, MDA

With a computer science degree from UBC and over 25 years in the space and defense industry I have dealt with all aspects of large project implementation. From contract pursuits to final customer acceptance, from requirements definition and design to implementation all the way through to integration and sell-off. Highlights of my career include mapping the Amazon rainforest with the Brazilian Airforce, implementation of satellite imaging software and participating in NATO exercises with the Canadian Military. I am currently helping to build one of Canada’s new navy vessels.   

Outside of my professional career I have a keen interest in the Maker community as well as being an active gardening enthusiast.
