Experience
AVL
Software and Functions Engineer (Model Based Design)
February 2023 - Present
Collaborated with cross-functional engineering teams to perform in-depth analysis of system requirements and specifications using System Modeling Language (SysML). Designed and developed detailed control algorithms in CMM/eVCU calculators to manage high-voltage electrical energy network in electrified vehicles (MHEV, PHEV, BEV, and FCEV) with a primary focus on 'DgoSynt' and 'FCPSMgt' functions. Adhered to rigorous modeling guidelines and utilized PSAMBD library of blocks to ensure compliance of the developed model using MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow. Conducted static tests, regression tests, coverage tests, codability tests, and MIL tests using various Stellantis tools. Meticulously implemented the Stellantis W cycle development process and systematically met deadlines for project key deliverables, including Models, calibration and pre-calibration files, tests reports, documentation, FXD sheets, and technical presentations. Analyzed SW issues, acquisitions, and calibrations provided by the testing teams. Developed workflow and tasks automation tools (Model Extractor and Comparison Tool, Attendance Tool). Compiled and maintained a comprehensive knowledge repository that led to a reduction in onboarding time for new members, enhancing team productivity.

AVL
GT-Xcode Engineer (Data Analysis)
May 2022 - December 2023
Collected, cleaned, and visualized raw data from defective vehicles for xHEV and BEV projects (DOVEs, acquisitions, Foundry (Contours), Excel VBA, PowerBI). Analyzed statistically, technically, and continuously the evolution of DTCs and the occurrences of faults (Technical events) in Foundry, as well as analyzing acquisitions using MDA to determine possible root causes of failure and uncover hidden information in the data. Led result analysis meetings and shared KPIs with stakeholders (RSM and Flying Leaders/Analysts). Developed tools for workflow automation and data analysis (GT-Xcodes Synthesis Tool, Modernization Workload Tool).

AL TEN
Calibration Synthesis Engineer
October 2021 - May 2022
Piloted the tuning teams through the calibration freezing process for gasoline and diesel engines (EB Turbo and DW). Synthesized and validated the PACOS and settings received from the tuning teams into a single industrialized calibration file using CRETA. Processed and analyzed technical after-sales files (weak signals) for the DW12Ru EU6.2 engine daily, handling 35 to 50 files per day. Developed workflow and tasks automation tools (Technical Email Generation Tool, After-Sales File Extraction Tool). Actively maintained documentation and prepared user guides for new tools, such as the PSA Filebox used for calibration storage.
