Own end-to-end technical assessments of EV powertrain components and platforms, defining acceptance criteria and test plans used by OEM and supplier clients to validate hardware before procurement and integration decisions. Advise on sensing and control architecture selection for electrification programs, weighing physical, electrical, and software constraints against cost, schedule, and system-level performance. Produce regulatory gap analyses and compliance roadmaps (FAME, BIS EV standards, international homologation), translating certification requirements into concrete engineering specifications.
