Alexander O'Neill Email and Phone Number
I am dedicated to bridging the gap between cutting-edge automotive technologies and the unique needs of the world's leading OEMs, motorsport teams, and tire manufacturers.At GCAPS, I leverage my rich background of engineering, physics, and product management to offer strategic insights into advanced simulation technologies. I work closely with global clients to understand their tire modeling and simulation needs, providing them with practical and customized solutions. My responsibilities also include leading the product management a software suite, managing multiple R&D initiatives, and overseeing the development and implementation of advanced tire and vehicle models. As a result, I help GCAPS's customers excel in multiple areas including tire and vehicle development, autonomous driving, and overall mobility.Previously, I was the Technical Product Manager for the Siemens Simcenter Tire software suite, playing a pivotal role in defining and executing the product strategy and roadmap for their industry-leading tire models. My expertise in tire modeling methodologies ultimately enabled me to deliver state-of-the-art simulation solutions to the market, but I also helped drive product sales and foster R&D partnerships.I hold an doctorate degree (EngD) in Engineering, completed as a joint venture between Jaguar Land Rover and the University of Surrey. My research focused on scaling tire models across different road surfaces, blending physical testing with simulation to advance virtual automotive engineering. My work was internationally recognized, including the 2020 Tire Technology Young Scientist of the Year award and 2019 IAVSD 'Best Paper' prize. I was also awarded a Royal Industrial Fellowship.In addition to my day job, I am also a director at the Engineering Integrity Society (EIS), a charity focusing on the areas of fatigue, testing, measurement, durability and sound & vibration. I help create and execute the strategic vision of the society, ensure its longevity, and maximise its impact over time. I am passionate about enabling broader discussions within science and engineering, and facilitating debates and knowledge exchanges with people from all over the world.Core Competencies and Technological Skills:Emotionally intelligent leader • Strategic market expansion • Client engagement and relationship management • Advanced simulation technologies • R&D project management • Product strategy and development • Cross-functional collaboration • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills • High workload management • Exceptional communication skills

I initially made contact with the EIS in 2018 when I presented my doctoral work at a "tyre/road interaction" conference. I was later invited to be a part of the 'Simulation, Test and Measurement Committee' to help conceptualise new ideas for conferences, seminars, and webinars. I then took a role on the EIS Council, before being asked to become a Director. Key responsibilities:- Make key strategic decisions (in agreement with the other directors) pertinent to the successful long-term running of the Society- Help solve complex issues that arise from running an active charity that interacts with a wide range of stakeholders from industry- Create new directions for the Society (e.g., spearheading a 'Young Engineers' program, targeting university students and recent university graduates)- Propose and promote conferences/seminars/webinars with themes that are in-line with industry and academia Show less -
