Technical Risk Analysis (FMEA / FMEDA / TCA)
Expertise in conducting, organizing and facilitating FMEA, FMEDA and TCA analyses, including creating and maintaining the corresponding files, coordinating experts, customers, production and suppliers, and presenting results in customer reviews. Traceability between requirements, failure modes and actions is ensured throughout the process.
Functional Safety Consultancy (ISO 26262 / ISO 21434)
Support for HARA and TARA under ISO 26262 and ISO 21434, including independent DFMEA reviews for electronic components and subsystems. Application of functional safety standards in the automotive domain with a focus on autonomous systems.
AI-Assisted Engineering Tools & Local LLM/NLP Deployment
Development of AI-assisted diagnostic and debug support tools, guided troubleshooting interfaces, and automated report generation from test or production data. Deployment of small open-source LLM/NLP models on client CPU hardware without cloud dependency or external data transfer.
Electronics Test & Debug
High-complexity board troubleshooting from PVT phase, FCT and climatic test diagnostics, debug station design, defect and yield analysis, AOI defect taxonomy and inspection performance evaluation.
Integration and Evaluation of Engineering Systems
Connecting new tools to existing test, MES or documentation systems and benchmarking AI output against engineering ground truth with measurable accuracy and failure-mode analysis.
Contract Research & Scientific Writing
Applied AI-for-risk-analysis studies, PRISMA and narrative literature reviews, benchmark design, scientific writing, and research-partner roles in funded projects. Author of peer-reviewed publications in IEEE journals.
Training & Mentoring
Development and delivery of FMEA/FMEDA/TCA methodology courses, engineer onboarding and mentoring, practical AI and LLM training for safety-relevant contexts, and course material development.
Programming & Web Technologies
Knowledge of programming languages including C, Java and C++, as well as web technologies such as HTML, CSS, MySQL, WordPress and tools like Joomla, UxPin, Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
Networking & Electronics
Competencies in networking, electrical engineering, electronics, and microcomputers acquired through academic training at Politehnica University of Timisoara.
