- Propose soft/hard targets for metrics using statistical methods and back them up with driving data
- Characterize the performance target against parameters used to define AV capabilities to provide nuance in performance evaluation
- Propose and implement ideas to analyze simulation, resimulation, public road and closed course testing results for stakeholders in Systems, Autonomy, Safety etc.
- Deliver strategic insights and recommendations based on AV capability testing by building meaningful visualizations
