Summary
Rahul Rajampeta is a vehicle controls and AI leader with 15+ years of experience designing and delivering energy-efficient powertrain and transport systems across global OEMs. As Unit Manager and Product Owner at TRATON Group R&D US, he blends physics-based control, reinforcement learning, and LLM-driven engineering workflows to scale predictive cruise, energy/range estimation, and driver-behavior functions for Scania, MAN, International and VW Truck & Bus. He has led EV and BEV control programs, pioneered bidirectional V2G features for school buses, and reduced warranty costs through data-driven root-cause engineering earlier in his career. Rahul is an inventor on multiple patents and has a track record of moving university ML research into production vehicle systems while building internal AI platforms (RAG/LLM/vector DBs) that cut engineering discovery from weeks to minutes. Based in Lisle, IL, he combines deep embedded ECU and Simulink modeling expertise with a pragmatic focus on deployable, cross-brand solutions.
