Experience working with heterogeneous embedded CPU architectures including ARM, Renesas RH850, and Infineon AURIX (A2G) within virtual platform simulation environments. Contributed to system-level modeling, debugging of CPU–peripheral interactions, and validation of hardware/software behavior in pre-silicon virtual platforms.
Contributed to the development and enhancement of virtual platform models in C/C++, including the implementation of fixes, feature extensions, and simulation accuracy improvements.
Worked directly with customers and internal teams to reproduce, analyze, and resolve complex system-level issues in virtual platform environments, focusing on root-cause analysis of simulation and software integration problems.
Identified root causes of functional and integration issues in virtual hardware models and implemented fixes through C/C++ based patches.
Contributed to planning and execution of patch releases for virtual platform components used in customer environments.
Worked closely with customers to reproduce, analyze, and resolve complex software and platform-level issues on virtual systems.
Recognized with Above and Beyond Team Award (Q1 2023) and Above and Beyond Individual Award (Q4 2023) for technical excellence and customer impact.
