About 

Alvaro Altamirano Visoso

Spaceship

I’m a Mechanical Engineer from New York University, with minors in Aerospace Engineering and Computer Science.

​

My main expertise lies in mechanical design and aerodynamics engineering, with hands-on experience as the mechanical and aerodynamics lead on three NASA sponsored lunar rovers, a novel VTOL drone platform, NYU’s Formula SAE team, and a published soft robotic finger.

​

Throughout these projects, I’ve also developed strong skills in computer science, advanced manufacturing, and systems integration, bridging disciplines to bring complex ideas into reality.

​

I’m passionate about building the future of exploration rovers, aerial drones, electric vehicles, soft robotics, infrastructure machinery, communications devices, and renewable energy systems.

​

I also have several interests outside engineering. I enjoy greatly reading books from Ernest Hemingway to Jules Verne. I also enjoy playing and watching sports like F1, soccer, tennis, and golf. In addition, I enjoy recharging my energy by hiking, biking and surfing. I like spending time giving back to my community. And lastly, I recharge my creative energy by playing the piano and never missing a song released by Surfaces.
