PEACHTREE CITY, GA – The Printed Circuit Engineering Association (PCEA) today announced Jackson Schultz, head of engineering at Rainmaker Technology, will keynote PCB West this fall.
His keynote, “Printed Circuit Boards and Making Rain,“ takes place Oct. 1 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Santa Clara (CA) Convention Center.
Schultz heads the design and integration of Rainmaker’s autonomous cloud seeding system, which works with nature to encourage precipitation, provide more freshwater, and mitigate drought and water scarcity globally. The pioneering platform uses a range of atmospheric sensors, flight controls, lidar, radar and other technologies.
Schultz previously worked on Anduril’s Altius UAV platform designing, integrating and testing various capabilities. At Regent Craft, he developed the seaglider’s test instrumentation architecture from the fiber optic strain gauges to time series databases.
He is a graduate of Georgia Tech in electrical engineering.
Rainmaker provides water for farms, watersheds and ecosystems, fortifying growth and stewarding the natural world. The company designs, builds and deploys weather-resistant drones, advanced meteorological radar systems, and atmospheric analysis software to achieve this. The company currently serves government customers in multiple US states and countries around the world.
PCB West will be held Sept. 30 – Oct. 3 at the Santa Clara (CA) Convention Center. The event includes a one-day exhibition on Oct. 1
