- Write comprehensive Product Requirement Documents (PRDs) for local machine learning models.

- Specify reinforcement learning rewards that maximize hardware efficiency without lagging.

- Define the triggers for AI agents to proactively recommend background app hibernation.

- Ensure local on-device inference executes with zero audible fan noise or thermal throttling.

- Performance & Telemetry Validation:

- Prioritize engineering backlogs for real-time application-sensing telemetry pipelines.

- Collaborate with QA to validate battery-saving metrics across diverse hardware form factors.

- Monitor application footprint to guarantee the software itself uses minimal CPU, GPU, NPU and DRAM.
