What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, offers growth opportunities, and values teamwork.

I am a dedicated System Test Specialist with extensive experience in the automotive industry, particularly in testing and automation. Currently, I work at Magna System, where I update and maintain CANoe configurations, install HIL benches, and create automated test cases using CAPL language. My role involves analyzing requirements to develop new test cases and providing support to development teams, ensuring efficient testing processes.

Previously, I served as a Vehicle Test Engineer at Hella, where I integrated driver assistance systems and conducted test drives to evaluate system functionality. My background also includes significant experience at Veoneer, where I automated tests and developed new test strategies for Vision ECUs. I am passionate about leveraging my technical skills in Python and CAPL to enhance testing efficiency and deliver high-quality results.
