Sarah Rudder started her career as a Systems Engineer in 2015 after graduating from Auburn University with a B.S in Biosystems Engineering. She joined the Vias3D team in 2022, bringing with her a variety of perspectives through her professional experiences. Sarah worked in the Nuclear industry supporting the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) in Hanford, WA and the Uranium Processing Facility (UPF) in Oak Ridge, TN. After graduating with her M.S. degree in Systems and Industrial Engineering from the University of Tennessee in 2020, Sarah began working in the Aerospace and Defense industry for Raytheon Technologies with a new passion for Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE).
Sarah is a registered Professional Engineer with the Commonwealth of Kentucky (#35148), Object Management Group (OMG) SysML Professional (SMP) Model User, Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Practitioner, American Society of Quality (ASQ) Six Sigma Green Belt, International Council of Systems Engineering (INCOSE) Associate Systems Engineering Professional (ASEP), Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) by the Project Management Institute (PMI), and holds a CompTIA Security+ certification.
As automakers are increasingly facing environmental regulations regarding CO2 emissions and gasoline consumption, the race to design electrical vehicles (EV) is well underway. Laws enforcing these guidelines are becoming more strict in the coming years, leaving these companies no other option than to develop and design compliant vehicles. Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) is a cross-disciplinary practice that can ensure these new requirements are met while decreasing product time-to-market.
Learn how enhanced requirements traceability within an MBSE environment allows errors to be caught earlier in automotive design, significantly decreasing development costs.
Learn how re-usability within an MBSE environment facilitates system, development, design, and integration while verifying and validating environmental regulations are being met.
