What I'm looking for

I'm targeting engineering, validation, simulation, automation, and technical project-management roles.

At BMW Group in Steyr, I developed a reusable Python and MATLAB framework connecting Simulink and Simscape models with AI agents through the Model Context Protocol. I demonstrated it on a fuel-cell cooling circuit and validated it on a second gas-flow model.

I automated model calibration and optimization, reaching ±3.5% average deviation from test-bench data and ±0.7% on a second gas-flow model. A persistent MATLAB session saved about seven hours per 1,000 simulation runs.

For electric powertrain validation at BMW Group, I designed a Hardware-in-the-Loop workflow for a new powertrain control-unit generation and automated full-load test sequences in ECU-TEST. I also developed a Python toolchain that converted raw MF4 measurements into steady-state results, Excel reports, and comparison maps, replacing manual evaluation.

Earlier, I co-developed two concept architectures for ZKW Group’s back-projection exterior lighting project. In my Egyptian Army role, I developed, maintained, and repaired military systems, and my engineering internships included PID control optimization and electrohydraulic controls.
