Work History

INFOTAINMENT AND TELEMATICS

SPACE GRAPH AUTOMOTIVE
PUNE
04.2023 - Current

Performed Verification & Validation of automotive infotainment software, executing test cases, handling faults, and ensuring requirement coverage.

Conducted in-depth testing of infotainment modules including Bluetooth, USB, Radio, Voice Recognition, and Smartphone Integration (Android Auto, Apple CarPlay).

Validated multiple media sources (USB, Bluetooth) to ensure uninterrupted playback and smooth integration with the infotainment system.

Worked on integration of infotainment with Instrument Cluster, Steering Wheel Controls, and Climate Controls, enhancing usability and synchronization.

Specialized in RVC validation, testing Borders, Guidelines, Bowl, and Panorama Views via AVB panel signal transmission.

Managed software upgrades and configuration changes for infotainment systems to ensure stable feature updates and bug fixes.

Utilized Diagnostic Tools for reading/clearing DTCs and validating DID/RID using UDS services.

Gained hands-on experience with Telematics layers, including Self FOTA and Remote FOTA flashing of ECUs (Body Control Module, Head Unit).

Verified software download and installation processes in Telematics ECU.

Validated telematics functionalities such as Panic Notification, Emergency Calls, Breakdown Calls, and Remote Immobilization during theft scenarios.

Worked with Debuggers and JTAG for flashing and executing Telematics ECU.

ADAS,ACURA Techo Park 2.0 , CLINT:-ACURA

SPACE GRAPTH AUTOMOTIVE

03.2022 - 04.2023

Integrated the Reverse Camera ADAS feature on the HIL bench, simulating real-world parking and maneuvering to validate performance.

Diagnosed and corrected sensor calibration issues and data mismatches to maintain feature accuracy and reliability.

Performed rigorous ABS validation using the HIL bench with structured test procedures.

Configured and managed the Project Loader to load and execute ADAS test scenarios and configurations efficiently.

Built dynamic real-time simulations on HIL to mirror diverse driving conditions and environments.

Calibrated ADAS algorithms within the HIL setup and verified ACC behavior for safe following distances.

Drove the STLC: authored test cases, planned and executed tests, tracked defects, and compiled comprehensive test reports.

Helped develop a Gateway Module to convert CAN → Ethernet messages and forward them to the ADAS ECU.

Ran closed-loop tests with sensor feedback to confirm system responses across scenarios.

Authored end-to-end test cases from system requirements for multiple ADAS functions.

Executed fault-injection tests to evaluate resilience and error-handling capabilities.

Led day-to-day HIL bench execution while coordinating with cross-functional teams to meet timelines.

Analyzed real-time logs and outcomes, documented findings, and communicated status via detailed reports.

Contributed to tuning the Hill Hold Assist (HHA) algorithm for precise brake activation from live sensor inputs.

Proposed process improvements and best practices to enhance HIL testing efficiency and coverage
