Autonomy isn't about taking control away - it's about giving safety back.

Nine years in automotive, seven of them in ADAS - building and validating the systems that make autonomous vehicles and intelligent machines reliable in the real world. My work spans Ford, Valeo, and Woven by Toyota, where I develop test strategies, build automation pipelines, and work at the boundary of hardware and software to prove that complex systems do what they're supposed to.

Key wins: cut data analysis time by 60–70% with HPC automation, owned $1M+ engineering change programs as the primary OEM interface at Valeo, and resolved 60+ production stop-ship issues across camera and sensor feature lines. Technical toolkit: Python, ROS, MATLAB, sensor fusion, a bit of C++ and test hardware from OXTS GNSS to ABD robots.

My interest in intelligent systems doesn't stop at vehicles. I'm drawn to any domain where rigorous validation, sensor integration, and systems thinking determine whether a product is safe to deploy - including robotics, surgical systems, consumer electronics and medical devices.

IEEE Senior Member. Recent speaker at the IEEE Robotics & Automation Society on testing and validation challenges in ADAS and autonomous systems. I build Raspberry Pi projects and 3D-print practical solutions in my spare time - curiosity doesn't clock out.

Open to connecting if you're working on intelligent, safety-critical systems of any kind.
