Software Architect for AUTOSAR ECU control software, bridging vehicle validation depth with test-automation architecture.

What I'm looking for

I want to apply my ECU and validation depth to test-automation strategy and architecture—building scalable approaches that connect requirements, integration, and verification for AUTOSAR-based control units.

I’m a Software Architect with 5+ years designing, integrating, and validating AUTOSAR-based control-unit software for production vehicle programs. I bring strong ECU software depth to work that must perform reliably in real-world development and delivery.

My core strength is vehicle/ECU architecture and integration strategy within AUTOSAR. I’ve also worked hands-on with hardware test-bench validation and CAN-FD communication using Trace32 and Vector CANoe.

I define technical direction and best practices, review designs, and mentor engineers across international teams. I own requirements analysis and technical planning in collaboration with internal and customer stakeholders.

I’m now looking to bring my ECU and validation depth into test-automation strategy and architecture, supporting scalable, multi-author development in large codebases. Along the way, I’ve used Git, IMS/MKS, MATLAB/Simulink, Eclipse TD5, CESSAR-CT, and AUTOSAR toolchains to connect design, integration, and verification.
