Hari Iyer is currently a PhD student and Research Assistant at Dr. Heejin Jeong's Human-in-Mind Engineering Research (HiMER) Lab, Arizona State University.
Previously, he has worked for Optimal Synthesis Inc. as a Research Engineer for 4 years (2018-2022) on a NASA $10 Million ULI grant, focusing on prognostics and reliability research for (Part-121) US-NAS (National Airspace System) and other SBIRs. Hari's role included building GNATS for Air Traffic Management (ATM) software engineering and testing, implementing Pilot/Controller Error Modeling, look-ahead flight simulation using In-time Risk Assessment (IRA) for flight situations, and optimizing 6-DOF Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) using real-time embedded signal processing for Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) applications for launch vehicle guidance simulation.
While an MS candidate at ASU, he was a part of Dr. Yongming Liu's PARA lab. With Dr. Liu, he founded and built PARA-ATM, a flight safety simulation tool for NASA ULI: "Information fusion for real-time national air transportation system prognostics under uncertainty".
Other positions held by Hari include being a Visiting Researcher at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, working on Air Traffic Controller (ATCo) workload and expertise analysis. He has interned for App Orchid Inc., a Silicon Valley startup, working on machine learning and building probabilistic models for Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Tribal Knowledge Inferencing for insurance/legal industry partners.
