What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead embedded automotive quality, system testing, and automation initiatives in a collaborative Agile environment where I can improve processes, mentor teams, and deliver safety-critical products.

I've delivered embedded system testing and AUTOSAR validation for General Motors airbag modules, including system-level qualification, software debugging, HIL setups, and CAN/CAN-FD network analysis. My work spans functional, smoke, regression, manual, and automated testing for safety and infotainment products.

Across Veoneer, Wipro, and Bosch projects, I've supported GM, Daimler, Panasonic, and Jaguar infotainment and safety systems. I lead test planning, automation framework development, requirements reviews, defect management, ASPICE-aligned documentation, and QMS execution, using CANoe, CANalyzer, CAPL, UDS, Code Beamer, and PTC Integrity.

I'm an Agile and Scrum practitioner who leads teams, recruits and onboards engineers, delivers knowledge-transfer sessions, and partners with developers, system engineers, quality teams, and stakeholders to improve test cycles and product quality.
