WORK HISTORY
Senior Systems Engineer @Scantinel
Ulm, DE
Senior systems engineer of the next generation on-chip FMCW LiDAR for autonomous vehicles.• Led the end-to-end development of long-range (300 m) Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FMCW) LiDAR for autonomous vehicles.• Conducted feasibility analyses and requirements engineering to define system objectives and constraints for 5 products.• Designed system architecture (photonics, electronics, optics, and software) and implemented robust configuration management to maintain system integrity and traceability.• Directed the integration of LiDAR subsystems and led system performance verification and validation efforts.• Established systems engineering processes within the organization.• Developed concept of the O-band 800Gps-1.6Tbps coherent optical transceivers based on the PIC solutions with simplified DSP (LPO and CPO).Key Achievements- Advanced Photonic Integration: Successfully integrated an on-chip switch matrix and detection subsystem, extending operational range beyond 300 meters. This integration enhanced system compactness and reliability- High-Resolution Gapless Scanning Architecture: Engineered a LiDAR scanning architecture achieving up to 10 million points per second. Delivered exceptional angular resolution of 0.01° (0.001° in software defined region of interest), maintaining performance over distances exceeding 500 meters for 50% reflectivity targets.

ABOUT MIKHAIL BUKHARIN
Systems engineering expert with 14 years in the development of complex optical, fiber, photonics and laser-based systems (including long-range LiDARs, optical fiber sensors (DAS, DTS, DSS), coherent optical transceivers and DWDM communication technologies). Hands-on experience across the full product lifecycle (ISO 15288, V-Model, ASPICE), with a focus on system architecture (ISO 42010/42020), root-cause analysis (FMEA), and agile, fast-paced project environments. Strong technical leadership with deep experience in international deployments and innovation management. I am also skilled in tools like Jira, Azure DevOps, Polarion, DOORS, Lumerical, and Matlab/Simulink.
