technical strategy
cross functional
- Identify and manage effectors and constraints (e.g., emissions/NOx, combustion dynamics, stability), expanding degrees of freedom where appropriate.
- Increase the robustness of the control by integrate improved inputs and observability (e.g., Coriolis fuel metering, airflow characterization).
- Drive cross-functional execution with Performance, Controls, Systems, Test, and Field teams to validate the strategy through simulation and testing.
- Validation & Data Driven: Plan and execute data collection in Test Stand and field; use data to calibrate models, refine strategies, and quantify benefit.
- Architect the control logic and produce the definitive concept and requirements package to guide Controls implementation.
- Own the Technical Strategy: Define and own the technical roadmap for the next-generation DLE control scheme; set milestones and validation gates aligned to a multi-year investment plan.
- Lead model development of simulations model (NPSS, Cantera, Python, Simulink) that capture physics of performance, operability, and emissions.
