• Company Overview: ITK Engineering (subsidiary of Bosch) based in Germany with offices worldwide, including Barcelona. Started in development team for Charge Enabler(https://www.itk-engineering.de/en/story/charge-enabler/)
• ASPICE project which uses Python , flutter and Docker. Activities and responsibilities into project were: updating and performing UT in release loop; implementation of new functionalities; updating Polarion( Requirements Tool). programming language used: Python Toolchain: Virtual Machine, Polarion, Visual Studio, Git, Bitbucket, Jenkins, Confluence

Involved in AUTOSAR project with focus on BSW. The main scope of the project was adding an AUTOSAR flavor on top of the non-AUTOSAR MCAL on a ARM CORTEX microcontroller.

Main Responsibilities: Design, develop and deliver GPT driver. Added MCU, PORT and DIO maintenance responsibility.

Currently with the role of integrator and active in customer meetings.

Toolchain stack: Polarion, Visual Studion, Polyspace, Jlink Segger, DaVinci Cfg.

Also, part of the engineering team for another AUTOSAR project, with focus on the upper part of RTE. Design, develop some CAN related functionalities. Focus also on integrating AI (Copilot) in different topics ( SWE2, SWE3)

Below a summary of the experience gained in ITK:

• Analyzed and interpreted customer requirements to develop engineering solutions.
• Led design and development of software solutions to enhance system performance and reliability.
• Documented and developed engineering procedures and processes.
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to integrate advanced technologies into existing infrastructures.
• Developed comprehensive documentation for software systems, ensuring clarity and accessibility for end-users.
• Conducted regular code reviews to maintain quality standards and optimize application functionality.
• Established strong working relationships with clients through exceptional communication skills, fostering trust and collaboration.
• Wrote, reviewed and edited technical document in accordance with template requirements.
• Developed positive working relationships with stakeholders to effectively coordinate work activities.
• Participated in formal internal design reviews of proposed products and components.

• Command and Control is a department responsible for developing embedded software for Shifters Systems. OEMs: Nissan, Jatco, Byton, Hyundai, Honda.
• My area in this department is research and development for a Shifter Control Unit that is the Human Interface between the user and the car gear transmission. Basically, it sends the selected gear safely to the Vehicle Control Unit to be processed.

Main activities and responsibilities:

• I had the role of Project Leader for NISSAN project after SOP. It was a change request from the customer for a product already on the market. Also involved in the development of the code. I had the opportunity to be involved in the meetings with the customer, prepare 5WHYs, deal with customer pressure and created roadmaps and analysis presentations. This experience gave me a clear overview about the customer-client interactions in tech industry.

• Conducted risk assessments and implemented mitigation strategies to enhance workplace safety standards.
• Performed root cause analysis and implemented corrective actions.
• Determined root causes of failures and recommended changes in designs, tolerances or processing methods.
• Communicated with other team members to enhance process and performance.
• Led cross-functional teams to deliver software, hardware and mechanical product to the client.

• Powertrain department (HEV)) - Research and development in Safety Monitoring Functions
• Developed embedded software for Hybrid Electrical Vehicles using ANSI C, ensuring compliance with ISO 26262 standards.
• Collaborated on projects for major automotive brands including AUDI, JAGUAR, and FORD, enhancing vehicle safety and performance.
• Led the design and implementation of complex functionalities following the AUTOSAR framework, contributing to successful project milestones.
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality products on tight deadlines.
• Contributed to a positive team environment through effective communication, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.
