  • Analyzed customer feedbacks and incorporated necessary changes into ongoing projects or future releases.
  • Assisted in developing test plans, test cases and executed tests to validate system functionality.

Function Lead (Aurora)

Continental Autonomous Mobility Pvt Ltd
05.2023 - 01.2024
  • Led development of Scenario Catalogue for Aurora pilot project, ensuring compliance with regulations and ODD.
  • Collaborated with system engineers and L1 architects through brainstorming sessions to implement GRVA-18 regulation.
  • Directed automation of test case execution and formats in ETM for L4 fallback path.

Function Delivery Owner

Continental Autonomous Mobility Pvt Ltd
01.2018 - 01.2023
  • As Function Delivery Owner, technically led the design and development of multiple ADAS AEB projects from inception to delivery, ensuring they met quality and desired KPI’s . Worked with major OEM’s such as VW, Geely,SAIC, Honda, IVECO
  • Honda L2 ADAS system:(Honda CR-V,Honda Accord)
  • Led discussions for requirement elicitation, negotiating customer needs effectively.
    Delivered technical insights on EBA function during customer interactions.
    Clarified risks related to customer requests while negotiating acceptance or rejection of requirements.
  • Led the design and development of AEB by achieving benchmarking performance in ENCAP 2023(5 stars) and JNCAP 2022(5 stars), UNR 152 , GB/T,IIHS
  • Demonstrated deep expertise in FOT and NCAP use-case performance tuning by ensuring desired KPIs for false positives and true positives were met, while actively collaborating with cross-functional teams—including Perception and Situation Interpretation leads—to identify issues through continuous testing and implement effective, data-driven solutions and improvements.
  • Established project timelines and milestones, ensuring timely completion of project deliverables
  • Analyzed customer feedbacks and incorporated necessary changes into ongoing projects or future releases.
  • Assisted in developing test plans, test cases and executed tests to validate system functionality.

Senior Software Engineer

Continental Automotive Systems Pvt Ltd
03.2017 - 10.2018
  • Developed function preselection algorithms to select the relevant targets for AEB function by taking inputs from sensor perception. Algorithm helps in filtering out unwanted objects thereby reducing the False brake reaction
  • Adopted the AEB state machine to address customer specific requirements for suppression and abortion of AEB and validated the same
  • Debugged critical issues found during system test, algo validation test and implemented counter measures to resolve the same which facilitated on time delivery.

Senior Software Engineer

Delphi Automotive Systems Pvt Ltd (Currently APTIV)
10.2013 - 06.2017
  • Requirement analysis of Telltales, Driver alerts, Info pages for the Reconfigurable cluster. It consists of Vehicle processing unit which process the inputs
  • Graphical processing unit which drives the display
  • Design and Developed Telltales (EPB, Seatbelt etc). Driver alerts such as TPMS, Drive Mode , AEB engaged ,Battery charge level indicator.
  • Configuration of ODI (Open display interface ) protocol to send out the info of telltales/alerts etc to Graphical processor unit for display
  • Close interaction with SW validation /System validation team in reviewing the test cases and test results. Providing quick analysis on the issues reported and fixing the same

Software Engineer

Delphi Automotive Systems Pvt Ltd (Currently APTIV)
06.2011 - 12.2012
  • Analyzed the requirements, designed and developed the Algorithm to calibrate the rear-view camera. Calibration here deals with the locking of the target, correcting the misalignment that occurs while camera is mounted on the vehicle in the manufacturing plant.
  • Diagnostic protocol used here was UDS and the algorithm development involved the usage of several UDS services such as Routine Control, Read/Write, Security access
  • Validated the algorithm on the Vehicle, using diagnostic tool.
