Siamak (Sam) then moved on to ServoTech Engineering & Manufacturing in 1992, where they worked as a Sr. Engineer. In this role, they focused on data analysis and statistical modeling of emissions data, as well as writing application-specific programs for on-board computers. Siamak (Sam) also gained experience in vehicle instrumentation and using various data acquisition tools for powertrain development and diagnostics.

From 1996 to 1998, Hashemi worked as a Sr. Engineer at Cosworth Engineering Inc, specializing in powertrain calibration development for Compressed Natural Gas vehicles. Siamak (Sam) was involved in OBD, emission, and powertrain sign-off, as well as coordinating CNG durability fleets.

In 1999, Hashemi joined Ford Motor Company as a Senior Research Engineer. Siamak (Sam) worked on calibration development for Hybrid Vehicles and Hydrogen Fueled IC engines, emphasizing engine mapping, emissions control, and fuel economy. Siamak (Sam) also calibrated a 1.2l T-Diesel vehicle with 49 mpg and PZEV emissions for PNGV.

At Ford, Hashemi held various roles and responsibilities, including a Calibration Technical Specialist (Team Leader) from 2001 to 2006, where they developed, calibrated, and launched a fleet of Supercharged H2 ICE shuttle buses. Siamak (Sam) also served as a Technical Specialist from 2006 to 2013, leading systems engineering, vehicle integration, software implementation, DV testing, and development of various projects, including PHEV, BEV, Direct Injection Modular Hybrid Transmission, and Micro Hybrid System.

Since 2013, Hashemi has been working at Tula Technology Inc. as a Calibration Technical Specialist. In this role, they have led the implementation and integration of Dynamic Motor Drive (DMD) and has been involved in the calibration of IPM, SynRM, EESM, and other electric motors. Siamak (Sam) has conducted Dyno, chassis rolls, and road testing for NVH, drivability, and efficiency.

Overall, Hashemi has demonstrated expertise in powertrain calibration, emissions control, vehicle integration, calibration development for hybrid and hydrogen-fueled vehicles, and data analysis for powertrain development and diagnostics.

Siamak (Sam) Hashemi has a strong education background in the field of Electrical Engineering. Siamak (Sam) began by completing a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from Lawrence Technological University, from 1985 to 1987. After some time, they pursued further studies in the same field and obtained a Master of Science degree from the University of Michigan, completing it between 2000 and 2001. Later, Siamak attended the University of Detroit Mercy to focus on gaining knowledge in Vehicle Electrification. Siamak (Sam) completed the program from 2010 to 2011 and earned an AEV (Advanced Electric Vehicle) degree.
