What I'm looking for

I am looking for a job that offers a dynamic and collaborative company culture. I am seeking a role where I can utilize my skills in software testing and development, and contribute to the success of innovative projects. I value opportunities for career growth and continuous learning.

I am a Computer Engineer with over 10 years of experience in Embedded C/C++ Software Testing and Development. I have a strong background in MISRA C/C++ (ISO26262) and extensive programming experience spanning over 15 years. Throughout my career, I have gained expertise in software requirement and test analysis, as well as unit, software in loop, and hardware and software integration testing. I am well-versed in various testing frameworks such as Google Test Framework and QT Test.

I have worked in diverse industries including automotive, aerospace, medical, industry, and telecom. My experience includes working with AGILE/SCRUM methods and V-Model. I am proficient in debugging with Lauterbach (trace32) and other debuggers, and have hands-on experience with tools such as DOORS, ClearQuest, ClearCase, GIT, Subversion, Jira, Omni tracker, Integrity, and Azure.

I am a flexible and remote worker, always eager to learn new languages and technologies. I am equally comfortable working independently or as part of a team.
