Senior Mechanical Design Engineer working on the development of the Optical Bench for the European Space Agency-led LISA Mission, an L-class mission aiming to fly a Gravitational Wave Observatory in Space with a launch date in the mid-2030s. The Optical Bench is the UK Space Agency's contribution to LISA mission and will be built by a team of Scientists and Engineers at the University of Glasgow and the UKRI STFC UK Astronomy Technology Centre in Edinburgh.
