→Execute mechanical loads analyses, controller tunings and trade-offs (loads, stability, operation and performance) for new products, cost out, design updates, and fleet support as needed.
- →Preparation of loads inputs, creation of the aeroelastic model, execute loads analysis and perform postprocessing is part of the design loop and therefore the responsibilities of the SVO engineer.
- →Perform basic operability checks and frequency domain stability checks.
- →Update loads envelopes
- →Hand off model and controller to MLA team, to execute site specific assessments.
- →Perform feasibility studies and develop tech charts.
→Deliver best-in-class loads mitigation and performance optimization technologies to lower Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE)
→Identify and deliver on ideas for process simplification and tools automation
→Cultivate an atmosphere of team building and learning, driving new methods/ideas for loads and performance improvements.
→Effectively communicate to cross-functionally engineering team and other stakeholders.
