  • Manage design engineering team (in house + offshore) to deliver technical analysis related to envelope performance, occupant comfort and building decarbonization.• Lead technical engagements with external consultants (architects/MEP) and deliver customized product value proposition to end customers (developers/owners)• Build energy models using industry standard software (EnergyPlus, LBT Suite. eQUEST) and review work for accuracy and compliance with ASHRAE 90.1, 55, 62• Manage roadmap to achieve net zero product embodied carbon. • Product manager for smart window tinting controls (software)• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve existing product and develop new features.• Develop technical marketing content for internal training and external promotions.• Design, manage and present data analysis from onsite measurement studies.• Publish papers and give technical presentations at national conferences. • Define requirements and UI/UX design of web-based tools for internal productivity. Show less I managed a core team of building performance specialists spanning all aspects of simulation and modelling including daylight analysis, thermal comfort and energy performance . Together we developed the most compelling value proposition for using View Dynamic Glass to create sustainable buildings where occupants can be fully productive and thrive.I received the first company wide Learning Oriented Award in 2017, for exemplifying the corporate mission statement in terms of innovation and drive for excellence Show less Collaborate with architects, engineers and sustainability consultants from all across North America to develop project specific value propositions using View Dynamic Glass for a wide range of building types such as commercial office, airports , hospitals etc.Key Achievements• Managing the full technical development, UI/UX design and testing of a web based energy simulation and cost analysis tool to be used by internal sales team for the rapid creation of custom project proposals in real time• Developed prototype energy models with standardized inputs that can be rapidly adjusted using a wide range of building and system parameters. The goal was to eliminate repetitive steps, reduce modelling time & errors and maintain consistency in the energy modelling process. • Implemented the detailed thermal comfort simulation capability including false color spatial visualization of occupant comfort using Grasshopper plugins• Designed and managed an experiment to assess the thermal comfort of occupants next to glazing. I had to learn about IR thermography, programming sensors and managing multiple contributing variables that affect thermal comfort. I was invited by the ASHRAE 55 technical committee to present my findings at the ASHRAE winter conference in Jan 2016. • I continue to work with simulation software vendors to implement/refine dynamic glazing capabilities and develop modelling tutorials Show less
