Focus: Data Acquisition Architecture, Signal Conditioning, and Sensor Physics.
Mission: To manage the complete measurement chain, ensuring high -fidelity data capture using specific high -end data acquisition platforms.

Core Responsibilities:

- DAQ Architecture & Management: Configure, deploy, and maintain high -performance Data Acquisition Systems. specifically NI (cRIO/PXI) and HBM QuantumX platforms.

- Sensor Selection & Integration: Define sensor requirements for structural tests (strain gauges, load cells, displacement sensors, accelerometers). Oversee the integration of these sensors with the DAQ hardware to ensure compatibility and optimal resolution.

- Signal Conditioning: Manage excitation voltages, amplification, and filtering parameters within the NI and HBM software environments to maximize signal -to -noise ratios.

- Wiring & Noise Mitigation: Design and supervise cabling infrastructure. Implement strict grounding and shielding protocols to eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI)



and ground loops in complex test setups.

- Calibration & Traceability: maintain calibration schedules for all NI and HBM modules and connected sensors. Perform shunt calibrations and zeroing procedures prior to testing.
