Summary

As German national i leveraging several years of professional experience as a system/software manager, Team lead, expert consultant, developer & and lead engineer, I have contributed to numerous projects within the mechatronics and robotic embedded systems sectors for multinational companies. My expertise encompasses software process improvement and assessment (ASPICE & CMMI), alongside active participation in development, quality assurance (QA), and quality management (QM) activities.IT/IoT, PCB & Electronic design, Cloud and Cybersecurity, Server/Client Network Management infrastructure. With a diverse background in IT, AI/GenAI systems and software engineering, I possess a comprehensive skill set include test automation, automotive systems, cybersecurity, cloud technologies, and AI. I am adept at developing and implementing test automation solutions for SYS/SW/HW using a variety of languages, including C/C++/C#, CAPL, Java, and Python, with a focus on AI applications. My automotive experience is extensive, covering E/E architecture, ECU development, CI/CD pipelines, telematics, infotainment, and advanced technologies like ADAS, E-mobility, and Power Train concepts. I am well-versed in automotive standards (ISO 26262, FMEA/ASIL, AUTOSAR, OBD II). Furthermore, I have a strong understanding of Car IT cybersecurity term, RF technologies, electric/electronic PCB design, cloud platforms (AWS), coupled with knowledge of Artificial Intelligence and ML/DL concepts. My expertise also extends to architecture optimization for SDLC/STLC, application development, sensor-based systems, and field bus/smart device applications. My daily work has provided me with in-depth experience across several technical and process-oriented areas, including ASPICE/CMMI process analysis, application development, and PCB/electronic circuit design. I also possess strong Business Intelligence (BI) skills. I am proficient in applying 'Best Practice' standards such as Agile, Scrum/Kanban, and ITIL, alongside project management tools like Confluence and JIRA. My expertise elongate to system/software/hardware verification and validation process analysis, adhering to ISTQB SYS/SW/HW methodologies.
