About Vinod Kancherla

Systems Test Engineer working on ADAS, Telematics, and PEPS across embedded automotive platforms. I organize test campaigns aligned with project milestones and DVPR/verification cycles—turning requirements into structured test plans, tuning thresholds, analyzing logs, and building edge-case tests so features behave predictably and safely on the road. My physics background and research experience help me tackle complex technical challenges and communicate clearly with cross-functional teams. Open to roles in validation, calibration, and system test for ADAS, telematics, and connected vehicle programs.Contact: v••••••••@gmail.com
