# Jessica Kuleshov > Ground Software @ Muon // Logistics @ FAR-OUT Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jessicakuleshov I am a graduate of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Columbia University where I received a B.S. Computer Science and a minor in Linguistics. Now I'm a software engineer! I also was Co-Lead of the Columbia Rocketry Team, which works on hybrid rocket engines and launches at international rocketry competitions. Since then, I have gone on to volunteer with hybrid-engine launch operations at the Spaceport America Cup and Launch Canada, and I keep involved with building and flying rockets. Now, I am a Co-Founder and the Logistics Lead of FAR-OUT, a hybrid- and liquid-engine collegiate rocketry competition that I hope gives teams an excellent chance to display their work and fly some amazing rockets! Outside of that, I enjoy making music, bouldering, hearing stories, and learning as much as I can about the world and the people around me. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer II, Ground Station Platform @ Muon Space Jan 2024 – Present | California, United States Supporting our ground station infrastructure and external integrations. ### Co-Founder and Logistics Lead @ Friends of Amateur Rocketry: Oxidizers Uninhibited Tournament (FAR-OUT) Jan 2023 – Present Co-founded the Friends of Amateur Rocketry: Oxidizers Uninhibited Tournament (FAR-OUT), a new hybrid and liquid-engine collegiate rocketry comp.
