What I'm looking for

I seek roles building automotive or robotics simulation and validation systems, emphasizing safety standards, test automation, CI/CT, and opportunities to integrate ML and VLMs for real-world robotic applications.

I am a software developer with a Master's in Automation and Robotics, experienced in building simulation systems for automotive and robotic applications. I develop 3D environments, sensor models, automated scenario toolchains, and robotics middleware solutions using Python, C++, Unity and ROS2.

I have a proven track record delivering HIL/SiL validation, ECU test automation, and CI/CT pipelines in compliance with ISO 26262 and ASPICE. At Bosch and KOSTAL I led test specification authoring, dSPACE and VECTOR-based HIL setups, and implemented test automation with CANoe, ControlDesk, and AutomationDesk.

I drive projects that combine machine learning, computer vision and VLMs with multi-robot coordination and embedded systems. I focus on reliable, standards-aligned engineering and continuous improvement of validation workflows to accelerate development and ensure safety.
