About | Gallardo Space Industries

Mission

Why We Exist

We exist to close the gap between what defense and space operators need and what the defense industrial base currently delivers. Too many critical technologies take years to develop and deploy. We move faster, build leaner, and ship hardware that works in the real world.

Values

How We Work

01

Speed

We prototype fast and iterate faster. Operators don't have time to wait years for solutions.

02

Precision

Every system we build is designed to work under real conditions, not just in a lab.

03

Ownership

We take full responsibility for what we build from concept through delivery.

04

Mission First

The warfighter comes first. Every decision we make starts with that.

Founder

Jeffrey Gallardo

Jeffrey Gallardo founded Gallardo Space Industries at 35 with one mission: build the hardware that brings warfighters home. Growing up in Compton, California as a first-generation college student, Jeffrey's path wasn't straight — it took years to find his way back to school before earning his Associates in General Studies and pushing forward to pursue a Computer Science degree at BYU-Idaho, where he now carries a 4.0 GPA.

That same persistence drives GSI. Jeffrey has already submitted SENTINEL AI to the United States Space Force through the Front Door program and is developing Gally, an autonomous AI-driven drone system designed for contested environments. He plans everything — from system architecture and mission design to business strategy and funding pursuit — personally overseeing every layer of the company.

With a background spanning software engineering, systems design, and defense technology outreach, Jeffrey leads every GSI project from concept to prototype, bringing six years of management and supervisory experience to the company.

His drive to build technology that protects people is personal. GSI is the vehicle for that mission.
