Business Ownership & Process Design: Co-founded Growing Groves LLC, a specialized recruiting firm, building the full recruitment cycle from the ground up – designing proprietary sourcing, screening, assessment, and placement processes Systems & Tools Optimization: Evaluated and piloted multiple Applicant Tracking Systems in live hiring workflows, embedding each into real operations to identify the best fit before standardizing on the strongest platform Hard-to-Fill Placement Success: Consistently place highly specialized, hard-to-find candidates that other firms have failed to source, filling roles in roughly half the industry-average time. Quality & Retention Guarantee: Our placements are backed with an industry-best guarantee period of 90 days, and we have maintained a best-in-class retention record, reflecting the accuracy of our candidate-to-role fit. Hiring Manager Partnership: Partner directly with the client hiring managers to define requirements, calibrate ideal candidate profiles, and advise on market conditions and compensation

Global Organization Leadership: Directed a multidisciplinary engineering organization of 100+ personnel across 30+ nationalities. Oversaw five critical domains: Mechanical Design, Controls/Calibration, Systems Engineering, Data Engineering, and Functional Safety/Cybersecurity High-Performance Product Delivery: Spearheaded the development and launch of the decade’s most awarded powertrains, including systems for the Corvette C8 (all variants), Shelby GT500, Maserati MC20, and Ford Mustang GTD. Aftermarket Strategy & Revenue Growth: Championed and executed the strategic expansion of TREMEC’s DCT and EDU portfolios into the performance aftermarket. Spearheaded the DC6000 EDU retrofit program for the Porsche 911 (996) platform, successfully demonstrating EV-conversion viability for combustion-legacy vehicles. Technical Compliance & Safety Excellence: Delivered the first ISO 26262 ASIL-D compliant program in company history. Successfully scaled this framework to subsequent projects using a Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) strategy to accelerate development cycles while maintaining rigorous safety standards. Infrastructure & Systems Innovation: Established the Systems Engineering department to centralize technical ownership and standardize cross-project methodologies. Data-Driven Operational Improvement: Formed a Data & Analytics team to translate field warranty data and financial metrics into actionable insights, driving measurable process improvements across the assembly plant and global supply chain. People & Culture Transformation: Achieved near-zero employee attrition by restructuring global compensation strategies and implementing a culture of radical process transparency, significantly stabilizing the organization during high-growth periods. Specialty Vehicle Programs: Directed the calibration and engineering support for extreme-performance aftermarket variants, including the 1,300hp "Code Red" Shelby GT500, ensuring powertrain durability under ultra-high-output conditions.

Performance & Drivability Optimization: Developed and refined complex engine controls strategies and calibrations to achieve an optimal balance between aggressive drivability metrics, fuel economy, and stringent emissions compliance. Full-Lifecycle Strategy Development: Directed sub-feature development from conceptual strategy through vehicle-level validation, ensuring propulsion system maturity across varied hardware architectures and levels of electrification. System-Level Validation: Executed rigorous robustness evaluations and subsystem validation to meet functional objectives; utilized advanced data acquisition tools to analyze combustion and propulsion data. Electrification Integration: Contributed to the calibration and controls strategy for hybrid and electrified propulsion concepts, bridging the gap between traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) fundamentals and modern electric drive systems.
