About me
Since October 2020, I have been working as "Program / Innovation Manager" for Fonds National de la Recherche Luxembourg. I am working on innovation programs such as Public-Private Collaborations (BRIDGES, Industrial Fellowships), JUMP21 (earlier Proof of Concept), and ICT topics of funding instruments.
From October 2018 - September 2020 (2 years), I worked as Software Architect at Delphi Technologies Luxembourg for next-generation electric vehicles from AUDI AG based on the high-performance multi-core computing platform that is compliant with AUTOSAR.
Passion towards Electronics and software that controls it during engineering graduation phase made me starting my venture "AdveTech" a product, solution, and training company. During foundation, I worked as a Systems Engineer for a year to develop some of the niche products which served to small-scale textile machines. I completed Master of Engineering (M.Eng) in Systems Engineering with the a specialization in Embedded System Technologies at College of Engineering Chennai.
I have kick-started the automotive embedded systems industry career with Jasmin Infotech Chennai India and worked on to develop embedded software for automotive infotainment - car multimedia product (almost 2 years), then moved to Bosch India where expertized on automotive power-train software development (7 years 8 months). At Bosch, I worked primarily in the area of Electronic Control Unit (ECU) software development based on the project management methods, Waterfall (5 years) and Agile Scrum + Kanban (3 years). A strong team player, I experienced customer engineering projects along with multicultural international stakeholders.
After a firm stint (12+ years) with industrial product development experience, In 2015, I started to work on my PhD project "Timing aware Model-Based Design to Automotive Applications" at LASSY laboratory of the University of Luxembourg after acquiring the FNR AFR 2015 research grant. This includes developing few novel automotive IoT products based on our lean Model-Driven Systems Engineering environment called CPAL, (more info: www.designcps.com). Our team "ProDIGIs" won several awards including a Special Jury award for one such product (a field tested), with a 10,000 euro prize money. On March 19' 2019, I have successfully defended my Ph.D under Computer Science and Communication Research Unit of University of Luxembourg.
