DENIS EVSTRATOV

Participated in the functional analysis and design of the Electrical Power System for the 6-seat eVTOL aircraft. Created an EPS architectural models for system safety assessment, interface management, and requirements capturing. Captured EPS equipment-level functional and interface requirements, developed equipment Data ICDs. Lead a team to refine these into software requirements for battery management and high-voltage loads control. Develop accurate and certifiable SoC and SoH estimation algorithms.

Led the preparation of the certification ecosystem for Lilium airborne software, including the development of the following documents: -- Software life cycle definition as part of the Design Organisation Approval deliverables. -- Plan for Software Aspects of Certification. -- Software development and verification standards (Requirements, Design, Model, Coding and Verification Cases). -- Software verification checklists.

Led verification activities for the Flight Control Computer (FCC) of the full-scale Lilium eVTOL prototype, including the design and implementation of Hardware in the Loop (HIL) test stations (Speedgoat based) and Model in the Loop (MIL) simulation environment, as well as test planning and management. Automated tests covered the most critical FCC functions, accelerating software release cycles. The Lilium full-scale eVTOL prototype completed its flight test campaign without critical FCC errors.

Defined development, validation, and verification processes for configuration data of the C919 aircraft's Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) System, focusing on the allocation of shared resources. Investigated automated Configuration Management features of the IMA Platform to control compatibilities between different software and hardware parts, resulting in the issuance of a IMA Compatibility Control Plan.

Reverse-engineered existing source code to develop software architecture descriptions and low-level requirements, supporting the certification process of the aircraft electrical power supply system. This enabled verification of software architecture against high-level requirements, uncovering previously undetected architectural issues.

Member of the SW Standards Working Group, developing design and C coding general standards that formed the basis for software standards in multiple Russian aviation projects. Co-developed and co-delivered a DO-178C training course, receiving positive feedback from Russian aviation engineers.

Tested various airborne software from low-level to software/hardware integration. Enhanced testing technology, significantly increasing test coverage of software requirements. Verified software data, including requirements, design, and source code. Collected code and requirements coverage metrics in accordance with DO-178B standards. Led a team that developed technology and tools for software testing of the Electronic Interface Unit (EIU). Developed design and coding standards for the EIU project.
