• Support definition of innovative fluid power solutions for future vehicle platforms.

Hybridization, Electrification & Alternative Fuels

• Support feasibility studies and system integration activities for hybrid and electrified vehicle architectures.
• Evaluate power management strategies between conventional and electrified subsystems.
• Assess energy flows, battery utilization and overall system efficiency.
• Analyze the impact of alternative fuels (HVO, Biodiesel, LNG, CNG, Hydrogen and future low-carbon solutions) on vehicle performance and efficiency.
• Support technology roadmaps and concept selection activities for sustainable vehicle development.

Early Phase Concept Development & Virtual Engineering

• Perform early-phase concept simulations to support architecture decisions before prototype availability.
• Conduct trade-off analyses between competing concepts and technologies.
• Develop virtual assessment methodologies for vehicle performance, fuel economy, productivity and hydraulic efficiency.
• Support shift-left engineering initiatives through model-based development approaches.
• Generate data-driven recommendations to accelerate development and reduce program risk.

Simulation & System Modeling

• Develop and maintain high-fidelity and reduced-order simulation models.
• Execute virtual validation activities at component, subsystem and full vehicle level.
• Correlate simulation outputs with experimental measurements.
• Support model-based engineering processes throughout the product development cycle.
• Utilize simulation environments such as AMESim, MATLAB/Simulink and other engineering analysis tools.

Project Leadership & Stakeholder Management

• Lead technical workstreams within complex multidisciplinary projects.
• Coordinate activities among global engineering teams and multiple stakeholders.
• Drive technical alignment and decision-making processes.
• Present simulation results, technical recommendations and project updates to management and engineering leadership.
