I am a results-driven Senior Embedded Software Engineer with over a decade of experience delivering complex, safety-critical, and innovative embedded solutions across the automotive, IoT, and industrial domains. My expertise spans the entire embedded software lifecycle, from low-level driver development and bootloader design to functional safety analysis, AUTOSAR integration, cybersecurity, and cloud-connected IoT systems.

In my recent consulting and freelance work, I led firmware and embedded development for global clients. At Energous Corporation (San Jose, USA), I developed firmware for BLE smart sensors, designed RF chargers using nRF52 and E4100 chips, and integrated an ESP32-S2 gateway with secure MQTT connectivity to AWS IoT Core, Wiliot Cloud, and EdgeIQ. At Continental AG, I contributed to the HCP4 Body Network Controller (BCM) project, conducting software safety analysis (FFI, FTA), IRQ protection, MISRA compliance, and implementing safety-critical features on Infineon Aurix TC387/TC397 and Renesas RL78. On an ADAS sensors platform (TDA4 J721E/J721S2), I developed low-level drivers for cameras and ultrasonic sensors, implemented real-time synchronization on R5F cores, and built Linux logging applications on ARM A72 cores. I also worked with Robert Bosch GmbH on EV powertrain platforms, creating a safety-qualified RTE Validator in Java and Python-based tools to automate safety validation, improving coverage and compliance.

Earlier in my career, I worked as Lead SW Integrator at ThyssenKrupp, where I led a team on Electronic Power Steering projects, developed secure bootloaders with AES and SHA-256, and delivered AUTOSAR BSW configurations. At Autoliv (now Veoneer), I contributed to multiple ADAS projects for Volvo and Daimler, implementing FlexRay and Ethernet stacks, SPI/DMA-based inter-processor communication, and developing safety monitoring modules. I also created Python-based RTE test generators and C++/C# simulation tools, reducing test preparation time by 40% and enabling early customer algorithm validation.

My technical expertise includes C, C++, Python, C#, AUTOSAR, FreeRTOS, ESP-IDF, Linux build systems, and a wide range of communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, LIN, Ethernet, BLE, MQTT, FlexRay). I have worked with Aurix TC387x, ARM Cortex-M/A/R, Intel Denverton, AVR, nRF52, and ESP32 platforms, using professional tools such as Lauterbach Trace32, CANoe, CANape, DaVinci Configurator, EB Tresos, ISOLAR, TI SysConfig, and Git/Jenkins.

I bring strong knowledge of functional safety (ISO 26262, ASIL-B/D) and cybersecurity (secure boot, HSM, AES/SHA), combined with hands-on experience in embedded integration, IoT connectivity, and automotive electronics. Fluent in English, Hungarian, and Romanian, I thrive in multicultural teams, and I am recognized as a team player, problem solver, and autodidact who can quickly adapt to new technologies.

I am passionate about building robust, secure, and scalable embedded systems that bridge hardware, software, and connectivity. Whether leading integration teams, designing safety modules, or delivering IoT solutions, I focus on creating reliable software that meets the highest standards of safety and performance.

My core technical expertise includes:

Programming: C, C++, Python, C#, Make, CMake

Frameworks & OS: AUTOSAR, FreeRTOS, ESP-IDF, Linux BSP & build frameworks

Protocols: SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, LIN, Ethernet, BLE, MQTT, FlexRay

Safety & Security: ISO 26262 (ASIL-B/D), functional safety, cybersecurity (HSM, secure boot, AES/SHA/MD5)

Hardware: Aurix TC387x, ARM Cortex-M/A/R, Intel Denverton, Atmega AVR, nRF52, ESP32

Tools: Lauterbach Trace32, CANoe, CANape, DaVinci Configurator, EB Tresos, ISOLAR, TI SysConfig, Jenkins, Git

Beyond core embedded development, I offer additional skills that add value to projects:

DevOps & CI/CD: Jenkins pipelines, GitHub/Bitbucket workflows, automated test integration.

Tool Development: Python, Java, and C# applications for code generation, safety validation, and simulation.

Testing & Debugging: VectorCAST, CUnit, hardware-in-the-loop simulation, oscilloscope and logic analyzer use.

Cloud & IoT Integration: Secure device-to-cloud connectivity with AWS IoT Core, MQTT, and edge platforms.

Cross-Platform Work: Linux application development, multi-core bring-up, BSP customization.

Agile Collaboration: Experience in Agile/Scrum, mentoring junior engineers, and working in multicultural teams.

Soft Skills: Strong communication, team leadership, problem-solving, and autodidact learning.
