Built by an Engineer Who's Been There

10+ Years on Part 25 Aircraft, eVTOL, and Next-Gen Propulsion Programs

I'm Ken, the founder of Solrise Engineering. After a decade of watching aerospace teams struggle with impossible PDR timelines, inconsistent V&V documentation, and review boards asking the same questions every program — I knew there had to be a better way.

Solrise Engineering exists to give aerospace programs the test strategy, V&V planning, and documentation infrastructure they need to pass reviews without scrambling.
