Test Automation
Expertise in test automation using Python (AI-assisted, engineer-reviewed), CAPL, C, C#, and dSPACE AutomationDesk. Majority of assigned system-level tests fully automated, including CI pipeline integration.
HIL Testing & Tools
Hands-on experience with dSPACE ControlDesk, ETAS LabCar / INCA, Vector CANoe / CANalyzer / CANape, and NI LabVIEW for hardware-in-the-loop testing and maintenance across automotive and rail projects.
Cybersecurity Testing (IEC 62443)
Cybersecurity testing according to IEC 62443 covering authentication, use control, system integrity, secure boot, confidentiality, DoS protection, backup and recovery, and customer-specific security tests.
Debug & Target Tools
Proficiency with Lauterbach TRACE32, GDB / Eclipse, ECU flashing, embedded Linux (SSH, shell, logging), and Wireshark for debugging and target-level analysis.
Requirements & ALM
Experience with IBM DOORS, PTC Integrity / Windchill RV&S, Jira, Confluence for requirement reviews, traceability, and application lifecycle management.
CI & Versioning
Working knowledge of Jenkins, SVN, and PTC Integrity sandboxes for continuous integration and version control.
Network Protocols
Knowledge of CAN, TRDP, CANopen, CIP, and Ethernet communication protocols used in embedded automotive and rail systems.
Standards
Familiarity with ISO 26262, Automotive SPICE (project at Level 2), and IEC 62443 standards applied in automotive and rail development projects.
Embedded Linux Integration Testing
Integration testing of embedded Linux communication controllers and their applications, including test cases in C with test stubs and step-by-step debugging with GDB in Eclipse.

Project history
Integration testing of an embedded Linux communication controller and its applications. Product-delivery-level verification on the real controller with full requirement coverage and test automation in Python. Cybersecurity testing according to IEC 62443. Testing of software installation and service tools. System configuration and CODESYS synchronization, Jenkins builds for dev / staging / field packages, board initialization, provisioning and firmware flashing. Requirement reviews and support of an offshore cybersecurity team.
Hardware and software maintenance of a robotized end-of-line with 40 full-function and 200 run-in test cells for premium infotainment head units. Fixing test programs in C#. Reduced permanently disabled test nests from ~60 to ~10. Prepared work-package based quotation and negotiated directly with the client.
First embedded software test engineer in the team; integrated the software side of a truck-simulating HIL rack until full closed-loop braking with real pressure valves. Specified and automated functional tests in a C-based in-house framework. Requirement reviews focused on HIL testability using PTC Integrity. Root cause analysis with Lauterbach TRACE32 and CANape. Self-initiated Python tool for multi-axle configuration generation adopted in the CI pipeline.
