About

With 18 years of expertise in software development for embedded control systems in the automotive sector, I possess an extensive and thorough knowledge of this specialized domain. Throughout my career, I have held roles in both development and testing departments, giving me a well-rounded perspective on the entire software lifecycle. As a lead engineer, I was responsible for the software of the T14 transmission, now implemented in International Motors’ Class 8 trucks. In 2023, I further broadened my expertise at Öhlins, working on the development of active suspension systems. Since early 2024, I have served as manager for teams dedicated to developing embedded software for transmissions and electric off-road applications at Traton Group R&D and Scania CV AB.
