Embedded Software Architecture
Expertise in designing and structuring embedded software platforms for safety-critical applications, including componentization strategies, abstraction layers, and multi-MCU support across automotive and medical device domains.
Functional Safety Standards (ISO 26262 & IEC 62304)
Deep knowledge of automotive functional safety (ISO 26262 ASIL-B/D) and medical device software standards (IEC 62304 Class C), applied across architecture, development, and verification activities.
Model-Based Design (MBD) with MATLAB/Simulink
Hands-on experience pioneering and owning MathWorks-based MBD toolchains, developing complex Stateflow models for automated parking and telematics control units, including MIL/SIL simulation and Embedded Coder code generation.
C/C++ Programming
Extensive use of C and C++ for embedded firmware development across RTOS, Embedded Linux, AUTOSAR, and bare-metal environments in automotive and medical device projects.
RTOS & Embedded Linux
Practical experience with ThreadX RTOS and Embedded Linux/Yocto for real-time and connected embedded systems, including platform abstraction and OEM-specific integration.
AUTOSAR & ASPICE
Application of AUTOSAR software architecture and ASPICE process standards in Tier 1 automotive supplier projects, covering requirements, design, implementation, and verification.
UML & Enterprise Architect
Use of UML modeling and Enterprise Architect for software architecture documentation, state machine design, and system-level design communication with stakeholders.
Docker & DevOps Tooling
Setup and maintenance of Docker-based build workflows, integration with SonarQube, GitHub Copilot, WSL, and NotebookLM for modern embedded development pipelines.
CAN & SOME/IP Protocols
Experience with automotive communication protocols including CAN and SOME/IP, used in telematics and connected vehicle platform development.
Python & Scripting
Use of Python for tooling, automation, and backend development tasks across embedded and web analytics projects.

Project history
IEC 62304 Class C embedded platform for next-generation ophthalmic surgical devices. Defined componentization strategy, extracted proven abstractions from legacy architecture, restructured source base with Docker-based build workflow, led NXP S32K3XX integration, and introduced AI-assisted development workflows.
Automated parking control unit for a leading European Tier 1 automotive supplier. Pioneered MathWorks-based MBD toolchain, owned automated parking activation logic in Stateflow, contributed to ISO 26262 ASIL-B supervisory module, and validated via MIL/SIL simulation.
Telematics control unit platform for a leading European Tier 1 automotive supplier. Owned state management and data connectivity components in a multi-OEM telematics platform using Embedded Linux/Yocto, ARM, and SOME/IP. Designed safety-critical eCall state logic and attended OEM integration workshops in Japan and France.
