All Systems Engineers and Technology Executives

Engineers who began in spaceflight programs and went on to lead technology companies or large organizations, carrying the habits of systems engineering into business, education and public life, such as Sylvia Acevedo, who worked on the Voyager 2 team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory before executive roles in the computer industry. A person belongs here when the cited article describes both an engineering career in spaceflight and a later executive or business career. Engineers of guidance and control systems and the human computers, mathematicians and software pioneers have groups of their own in this subcategory.
