About Upendra C.

As an Advance Control System Engineer at General Motors, I apply my expertise in MATLAB, Simulink, Embedded C, and other tools to develop and test advanced software and controls for both internal combustion engine (ICE) and battery electric vehicle (BEV) platforms. I have two plus years of experience in this role, and I enjoy working with a talented and diverse team of engineers and managers to deliver high-quality products and solutions.Previously, I worked as a Controls Algorithm Engineer and a Software Robustness Engineer at GM, where I gained valuable experience in powertrain, electronic transmission, and active safety systems. I designed and implemented control algorithms, simulation models, and testing methods for various components and features, such as electronic shifter, automatic emergency braking, and forward collision alert. I also used multiple testing platforms, such as model-in-loop and hardware-in-loop, to ensure the performance and reliability of the software and hardware. Through these projects, I developed strong skills in research, analysis, computer interaction, mathematics, and critical thinking.
