About me

iknowly mentor since Aug 2025

I am a seasoned System Validation Engineer with nearly 10 years of professional experience specializing in automotive software validation, ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems), and active safety technologies. Having contributed to leading automotive projects in Germany and India—including Gateway, Platform ECU, and diagnostic validation for renowned automotive suppliers—I bring practical expertise in HIL/SIL testing, compliance (ASPICE, ISO 26262), and automation for modern vehicle architectures. My skills include requirement elicitation, diagnostics, cybersecurity, test automation, and hands-on experience with Vector and NI tools. Whether you are a student, job-seeker, or working professional, I offer targeted guidance on breaking into or growing within the automotive engineering industry, technical interview preparation, and adapting to the German work culture. Together, we can translate your ambitions into real opportunities within the fast-evolving world of automotive technology
