Hi, I'm Dan Card

About me

Former rocket scientist, current software engineer. I obtained my formal education in aerospace engineering, but transitioned into the world of technology and programming! Through my graduate studies, I found my passion of programming. And after much reflection, I've decided that I wanted to further pursue this career.

There's so much to learn and I can't wait to get started!

I can be reached via my email at [email protected]

Check out my portfolio here!

Still here? (My Past as a Rocket Scientist)

Github Image

I always get asked about my past rolees as an aerospace engineer, since it's such a unique skillset. If you're curious, well here's what I previously did when I was in the aerospace field:
  • Lead maintenance and tooling for multi-billion dollar Trident D5 II Navy contract
  • Performed R&D on high power Hall Effect Thrusters (HETs), a.k.a. ion engines
  • Designed an carbon-graphite ion beam dump to lower vacuum chamber erosion
  • Aided research at The University of Michigan's Plasmadynamics and Electric Propulsion Laboratory (PEPL)
  • Created a small embedded system for digital aquisition (DAQ) for laboratory purposes
