1. Power Controls Requirements & System Development. Lead the development, review, and maintenance of Power Controls system requirements for Power.Net 1, Power.Net 1 , and future Power.Net architectures, including 12 V and 48 V power systems. Ensure requirements address vehicle-level power management across 12 V and 48 V domains, including load management, voltage regulation, multiple power sources, power transitions, and power availability under all operating conditions. Guide engineers in translating system and vehicle requirements into clear control logic, calibration intent, and validation criteria. Drive alignment between architecture, controls, software, and hardware teams to ensure robust, scalable, and feasible power system designs .. Power.Net Controls Investigations & Optimization. Lead technical investigations related to Power.Net control behavior, including 12 V and 48 V system interactions, performance gaps, unexpected system responses, and integration issues. Identify and drive power optimization strategies to improve system efficiency, robustness, and vehicle performance, such as: Load shedding and prioritization strategies. Voltage and energy optimization across 12 V/48 V systems. Improved power transition and recovery behavior. Collaborate with Technical Experts, System Architects, and Program Teams to evaluate trade-offs and implement optimized control solutions across vehicle programs .. Validation Support & Issue Resolution. Support and guide system-level validation activities, including in-vehicle testing and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) validation for 12 V and 48 V power systems. Lead issue investigations during bench, system, and vehicle validation, including root cause analysis, corrective action definition, and requirement updates. Ensure validation learnings are systematically fed back into system requirements, control strategies, and calibration updates .. Quality & Field Issue Leadership. Lead quality investigations related to Power.Net control systems, including warranty, field issues, and campaign prevention activities involving 12 V and 48 V power domains. Drive structured root cause analysis and corrective actions for complex, system-level power issues. Ensure Power.Net control strategies maintain voltage quality and power availability to safety-critical systems. Support the development and maintenance of DFMEA, FMA, and robustness actions in collaboration with systems, quality, and functional safety teams .. People Leadership, Mentorship & Development. Directly supervise and mentor Power Controls engineers, providing technical guidance, performance feedback, and career development support.
