I am Human System Integration and Engineering professional currently providing Crew Systems Engineering support to the development of the HALO (built by Northrop Grumman) - the first module of the Gateway Lunar Station .In the past I represented Human Health and Performance branch in the NASA xEVAS contract owned by Collins Aerospace. I led HSI team and ensured that NextEVA Spacesuit HHP requirements are in compliance with NASA standards. My team created developmental and verification test plans in support of validation and verification of the NextEVA System. I was also responsible for EVA Task Analysis, Human Error Analysis and Human System Integration. I offered wide Human Factors academic perspective as a SME for the project.Previously I was a Human Factors Engineer in the Human Factors Engineering Lab (HFEL) within the Habitability and Human Factors Branch (SF3) of the Human Systems Engineering and Integration Division (SF) at JSC, NASA. My team developed human-in-the-loop (HITL) testing plans, procedures and methodology for Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV) and Small Pressurized Rover (SPR), analyzed corresponding NASA requirements and conducted approved HITL tests. I also served as a Human Factors SME and a test conductor for lunar EVA VR simulation HITL tests performed at the Systems Engineering Simulator (SES). I was also a team member of the CHP EVA Standard Measures Development subgroup within the H-3PO Laboratory at Biomedical Sciences Branch (SK3). Additionally I developed human-in-the-loop (HITL) testing plans, procedures and methodology for xINFO Subsystem components of the xEMU spacesuit (component and integrated testing), conducting of tests and reporting.My research interests include cognitive workload, its measurement and influencing factors, situation awareness, human performance in extreme environments, human psychology of deep space missions, psychology and physiology of fatigue and stress.My additional Specialties/Certificates:- Certified Open Water, Advanced Open Water Diver, Rescue Diver and Mixed Gases Diver (PADI and TDI).- Certified Oxygen Provider (DAN).- Military Static Line and Free Fall Parachutist (US Army).- Licensed sky diver (Class “C” Parachutist, USPA).- Ranger First Responder and Combat Life Saver (US Army).- Drill Sergeant (US Army).- Certified Army Rigger (US Army) and Senior Rigger (FAA).- Private Pilot and Remote (drone) Pilot (FAA).- Combat Engineer (US Army).- Certified Observer, Coach/Trainer (US Army).- Secret Clearance (US Army).- Fluent in Russian and Ukrainian
