Key Responsibilities

• Define the reliability roadmap and targets for stack life, degradation rate and availability, grounded in electrochemical first-principles, spearhead Design for Reliability (DfR) and Manufacturability (DfM) across all stack generations.
• Make DFMEA/PFMEA primary tools (not afterthoughts), linking each failure mode to a test or design control, quantify all reliability claims with documented analytical basis.
• Design accelerated life testing (ALT) protocols and oversee the DVP&R to validate stack components under varied transient loads, pressures and temperatures.
• Implement stack diagnostics (EIS, Cyclic Voltammetry) to monitor decay and find root causes, while respecting the limits of each characterization tool and avoiding over-interpretation.
• Lead structured technical discussions, own root cause analysis on test data from the Testing Director and translate field feedback into design changes with closed-l...
