Issue and change management for the Mercedes-Benz EVA2 steer-by-wire and Geely/ZEEKR CM1e programs. Department’s primary contact to Mercedes-Benz for software issues across four parallel streams. Planned fixes into releases, organized CCB sessions, checked release readiness and reported weekly to management. Achievements: led the pilot of a redesigned issue process (clearance rate 20% to 70%); led customer ASPICE audits (SUP.9 reached level 2); analyzed critical Geely/ZEEKR blockers to root cause.

Integrated software on physical steering and braking ECUs (Mercedes-Benz EVA2, Ford B726): base software configuration, flashing, smoke and HiL tests, and CI build pipelines (Jenkins, Gradle). Debugged issues to root cause using logs and traces. Achievements: developed and piloted a virtual ECU test environment; standardized static code analysis (AbsInt aiT) and memory mapping across projects; introduced a CPU load analysis tool; SME for GLIWA T1, trained colleagues to take over.

Embedded C development for the VW MQB ADAS front camera. Built and maintained the communication protocol between the Mobileye front camera and the Valeo control ECU. Translated customer requirements into production C code, configured base software stacks, and ran verification and coverage checks against automotive coding standards. Achievement: delivered bridging software components to meet critical release deadlines.
