WORK HISTORY
Senior Embedded Engineer @ZF Group
Vernon Hills, IL, US
Developed real-time firmware in C/C++ for automotive ECUs using AUTOSAR Classic architecture and RTOS ensuring deterministic performance aligned with ISO 26262 safety standards.• Implemented and validated CAN (Classical & FD), LIN, UART, and Automotive Ethernet communication stacks under high bus load conditions.Interpreted ISO 26262 ASIL requirements, implementing diagnostic reporting, fault handling, and safe-state transitions during integration testing.• Debugged timing and synchronization issues using firmware traces and CANoe bus analyzer logs during road simulation testing.• Designed watchdog and safety recovery mechanisms compliant with AUTOSAR BSW modules to ensure controlled reset and fault tolerance.• Executed HIL and SIL validation cycles, simulating sensor failures and bus overloads to verify firmware robustness.• Integrated secure bootloader and AUTOSAR-compliant flashing protocols for controlled firmware updates across ECU variants.• Performed root-cause analysis using CAN/Ethernet diagnostics, delivering production-ready firmware patches.• Maintained traceable documentation linking ISO 26262 safety requirements with AUTOSAR software components and validation results.
