We’re kicking off our Anniversary month with a new monthly series - “SSAI Spotlights”. Our goal is to shine a light on the unique and wonderful people that make up SSAI and who have worked together to help SSAI grow over the past 45 years. First up is Ciara Smith, the Command and Telemetry Database Lead for the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) mission.

SSAI’s dedication to helping employees grow in high demand areas has led us to invest in an accelerator program designed to significantly improve skills within the machine learning field in a short amount of time.

Each Thursday from January through March, we highlighted a different accomplishment from various areas supported by SSAI. Here's a look at the great breadth of work performed by our dedicated employees last year.
