Rob Perini Email and Phone Number

The job has evolved and expanded since the last time I did the job. I have am still managing the powertrain controls for several programs (currently anything with a 2.7L or 3.0L gas engine). But, now I am also heavily involved in the purchasing process and managing calibration complexity.

My role as software planner is similar to what I did as a project control leader, but focused on software. I am responsible for supporting all programs prior to 2019 MY with an engine size of V6 and larger. I also support all gas Superduty (including Econoline and after-market programs), GT500, and V6 Transit.

As project control leader, I've managed the development of powertrain control systems on I4, V6, V8, and V10 engine systems for passenger vehicles, trucks, SUVs, and cross-over vehicles. In doing this, I interact with a huge array of different people in different groups, including software, calibration, program team, electrical, dynamometer, engine, transmission, fuel, brakes, cooling, and anyone else with a stake in the success of the vehicle. Having working knowledge of such diverse operations, as I do, is essential to making these interactions a success.I have what I like to call an unflinching loyalty to the vehicle. As such, I will always do whatever serves the success of the vehicle best, regardless of the personal time and effort required to accomplish it.

Converted rough engineering documents into the correct format, and assembled feature documentation into strategy books for powertrain controls.

Wrote operator and repair manuals for military vehicles, including validation of the procedures in test garages. The verification of these procedures was done with government personnel. Corrections were always made in a timely manner to suit the government's requirements.
