Arturo A. Acosta
Systems Engineer at Lockheed Martin
Systems Engineer at Lockheed Martin | MS in Systems Engineering
I earned a Bachelors degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering (2019) and a Masters degree in Systems Engineering (2020), both from the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). Go Miners!

For the past 2+ years I have been working as a Systems Engineer at Lockheed Martin. I bring project concepts and objectives to life and deliver practical results that meet or exceed stakeholder expectations. 

In addition to my Engineering knowledge, I have also practiced and learned multiple project management approaches, including Waterfall and Agile. I completed the Google Project Management course which covers traditional and Agile project management approaches throughout the life cycle of a project. I have also completed certifications that have taught me the fundamentals of DevOps, Cloud Computing, Agile, and Scrum and their transformational impact on businesses and approaches to software engineering.

I consider myself a versatile engineer as I have experience in Project Management, DevOps, Quality, Systems, Packaging and Manufacturing Engineering.

I am actively seeking new roles as a Project Manager, Program Manager, Product Owner, Project Engineer, Systems or Integration/Test Engineer. If you’re interested in communicating, feel free to send me a message I would be delighted to hear from you.
