Gutiérrez Raúl - Gaia
Gaia contributors
Gaia was proposed in 1993 and since then, many people have been involved in the Gaia mission, whether at ESA, at industry side or at one of the institutes involved in the Gaia data processing. The Gaia Data Processing and Analysis Consortium (DPAC) is a collaboration which consists of around 450 scientists and engineers.
The list of Gaia contributors presented here should not be considered a complete representation of the entire consortium and should not be considered as a list of currenly active people on the Gaia mission. A more complete list of Gaia contributors that were involved in the creation of the Gaia catalogues can be obtained from the author lists of the Gaia Collaboration overview papers (for Gaia Data Release 1 see here, for Gaia Data Release 2 see here, for Gaia Early Data Release 3 see here, for the full Gaia Data Release 3 see here, for Gaia Focused Product Release see here). A history of contributions to the Gaia mission can be found from the acknowledgements given with each data release.

Raúl Gutiérrez joined ESA in 2013 as a software and database engineer, contributing to the design and implementation of the Gaia Archive within the ESAC Science Data Centre as part of CU9. In 2021, he became a member of the AGIS team, actively participating in the development of the Astrometric Global Iterative Solution processing software. After earning his degree in Telecommunication Engineering in 2001, Raúl started working at the Spanish National Institute for Aerospace Technology (INTA). He designed and implemented scientific archives for ground-based telescopes and space astronomical missions as GTC or INTEGRAL-OMC, as well as astronomical software like the SED builder, VOSED. As technical leader of the Spanish Virtual Observatory (SVO), Raúl has actively participated in Virtual Observatory projects as the IVOA (International Virtual Observatory Alliance) and EURO-VO. Furthermore, Raúl has contributed to software development for other ESA missions, including JWST, Hubble, and LISA. Beyond his professional pursuits, Raúl finds enjoyment in building and flying RC planes, participating in badminton, and collaborating with wildlife preservation organizations.
