Dr. Masha Petrova CEO of Nullspace, Inc. | People of Science | Extrovert Engineer, EM Simulation, SciFi, and AI
Manage episode 407942910 series 3021637
On this episode we speak with Dr. Masha Petrova, the CEO of Nullspace, Inc. a company creating simulation software for electromagnetic applications in the Academic, Commercial, Aerospace, and Defense Industries. Masha shares with us her STEM origin story from a childhood love of Soviet Space SciFi to becoming a PhD Simulation Engineer in the US, which led to her "aha" moment of realizing she was actually an "Extroverted Engineer".
Dr. Petrova is an experienced executive with a passion for leading multi-disciplinary global teams toward successful results by focusing on operations and creating a unified vision.
After receiving her PhD in aerospace engineering, Dr. Petrova spent 15+ years in the engineering simulation and design software industry, including holding global marketing executive roles at Ansys, Altium, LLC, and IncMSC Software (during acquisition by Hexagon MI) as well as 3 simulation software start-ups all acquired by Ansys, Inc. in the last 10 years.
Thank you to Masha for joining us on the podcast, sharing her STEM Origin Story, and for a fun discussion about Start-up life, "Freedom", SciFi, Deep Tech, and AI. A great episode that I HIGHLY recommend listening to, especially for anyone who wants to get into STEM or currently trying to find their place in it.
Topics from the episode:
engineer, company, engineering, space, software, build, electromagnetics, people, ai, problem, simulate, startup, develop, tools, simulation, technology, solver, extrovert
