Developed and maintained embedded C++14 software for ADAS modules such as Lane Keep Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, and Collision Mitigation.Integrated sensor fusion logic combining radar, LIDAR, and camera data, enabling reliable real-time decision-making on ECUs.Designed and optimized Linux kernel modules and device trees for ADAS sensor interfaces; customized U-Boot for secure bootloader features.Applied GStreamer pipelines for camera streaming, image preprocessing, and audio-video data synchronization in ADAS systems, ensuring low-latency multimedia integration for driver-assist features.Collaborated with A/V system teams to validate audio-video studio use cases such as synchronized playback, real-time video rendering, and low-latency debugging during ADAS development.Conducted HIL/SIL simulations and developed validation plans to ensure ISO 26262 compliance and real-time response.Used tools such as GDB, Lauterbach, Valgrind (perf, cachegrind) to debug latency and memory bottlenecks, reducing sensor and video processing delays by 30%.Applied MATLAB/Simulink models for algorithm validation and converted them into C code for ECU-level deployment.Used Yocto Project to build Linux-based automotive images, with customized BSP layers for ARM-based ADAS platforms.Maintained code and firmware builds using Make, CMake, and Jenkins for automated CI/CD deployment.Used Valgrind, perf, and cachegrind to identify memory leaks, latency spikes, and CPU usage inefficiencies.Participated in functional safety analysis (ISO 26262) to ensure system reliability in mission-critical ADAS operations.Troubleshot post-deployment ADAS issues reported from in-field testing and diagnostic logs.Interfaced directly with teams in Japan and the U.S. to coordinate firmware and hardware feature integration cycles.
