  1. Drove full embedded SW lifecycle — requirements analysis, SW architecture, C/C++ implementation and verification — for safety-critical ASIL B/C inverter ECUs on ARM SoC platforms per ISO 26262 Part 6. 1. Developed AUTOSAR-compliant Application SW for Active Discharge, Phase Current Sensing and Resolver Qualification using Simulink and Davinci Developer; implemented IoHwAb and CDD interfaces for sensor devices (ADC, DMA, SPI). 1. Architected multi-core AUTOSAR Classic embedded software — integrating BSW, MCAL (ADC, DMA, SMU, GTM) and OS abstraction across ASIL and QM partitions using Electrobit TRESOS and Vector Davinci Configurator. 1. Configured and integrated MCAL peripheral drivers (I2C, SPI, UART with DMA) for sensor and actuator interfaces; performed MCU/MPU resource profiling and validated peripheral configurations on target hardware. 1. Executed static code analysis (Polyspace, MISRA-C) and structural code coverage verification (MC/DC, statement, branch via TPT) to fulfil ISO 26262 software verification objectives; maintained zero-blocker software quality gates. 1. Led CI/CD pipeline setup and maintenance using Jenkins and Git — establishing automated build, static analysis and test workflows; drove continuous integration across distributed scrum teams. 1. Performed Software Release and Integration activities — coordinating solution demo sessions, preparing release notes, and managing software branching strategy (Git) for multi-variant product lines. 1. Performed Supplier Safety Analysis for park lock actuators — evaluated ASIL decomposition, prepared supplier requirements and supported HW safety metrics (HWEER, DC, SPFM, LFM) verification. 1. Led global cross-company initiative to create a standardized SW-DFA template; maintained full requirements traceability in Polarion linking safety requirements from system level through implementation and verification per ASPICE CL2. 1. Supported successful vehicle homologation and motor dynamometer testing — performed real-time on-site issue analysis; interfaced directly with OEM customer teams to resolve complex integration issues effectively.
