I am a senior software engineer with a strong background in technical leadership for safety-critical systems, currently working at NVIDIA in the field of autonomous and automated driving. My career spans hands-on engineering and long-term project leadership across embedded software, automotive, and medical technology — domains where reliability, safety, and system-level thinking are non-negotiable. I started as a freelance embedded software engineer, working for over six years on complex systems in medical devices and automotive electronics. This phase shaped my engineering mindset: deep technical ownership, responsibility for the full lifecycle, and close collaboration with customers and hardware teams. At Bosch, I spent more than seven years in the area of autonomous driving, transitioning into project leadership roles. I led cross-functional teams of software, systems, and testing engineers, coordinated stakeholders across organizations, and was responsible for delivering complex software systems from concept to series production. Today at NVIDIA, I focus on building high-performance software for autonomous driving platforms, combining deep technical work with system responsibility, mentoring, and architectural decision-making. Core strengths: – Technical leadership in safety-critical environments – Embedded & automotive software systems – Autonomous driving (ADAS / AV) – Cross-functional collaboration & stakeholder alignment – From hands-on engineering to project and system ownership
