RASHI JAIN

Dr. Rashi Jain is an aerospace engineer specializing in the systems engineering including design, development, and testing of resilient, safety-critical systems for space exploration. She earned her Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from Purdue University, where she developed the Resilience Potential metric—a framework for selecting safety controls in complex, resource-constrained systems such as lunar habitats. She also has a minor in propulsion engineering.

She currently works as a Software Engineer at Joby Aviation, helping make electric air taxis as an safe & reliable, everyday mode of transportation. She has also founded AeroWorks LLC, an initiative to integrate machine learning into design and safety decisions for complex systems.

She is an active member of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and Sigma Gamma Tau, has served as Crew Journalist at the Mars Desert Research Station, and is a student pilot with over 30+ hours of flight in a Piper Warrior.
