As a line manager I am responsible for a team of 8 engineers, within the department Engine Integration & Validation (EI&V). Our team develops the engine controller functionality.The work involves amongst others:* Supporting the engineers in (non) technical matters* Process improvement (for example introducing a more agile way of working)* Project support / planning / budget* Performance appraisals and recruitmentSkills: leadership, team management, coaching, Automotive SPiCE, process improvement, DNG and RTC

As a line manager I was responsible for a team of 25 enthusiast engineers, within the department Engine Integration & Validation (EI&V). Our team assured that the engine controller software is calibrated, in such a way that our engines have the lowest possible fuel consumption and highest MTBF without exceeding legal requirements or hardware limitations.We were involved in the proof of concept and left side of the V-Model, but mainly participated on the right hand side of the V-Model where the engine software, hardware and mechanics are integrated, verified, calibrated and validated.The work involved amongst others:* Supporting the engineers in (non) technical matters* Process improvement (for example introducing automotive SPICE level 2)* Project support / planning / budget* Performance appraisals and recruitmentSkills: leadership, team management, coaching, Automotive SPiCE, process improvement

As a test engineer, I was responsible for the verification of the image processing subsystem of an x-ray system.The work involved amongst others:* test design (functional and non functional)* design and write code for test framework* retrospective for the projectThe result was, a successful launch of an updated image processing subsystem.Skills: test techniques, process improvement, ISTQB, C#, V-model, UML, test automation

Assignments done for: * TomTom Automotive (December 2007 - November 2010)* Philips Healthcare BU iXR (January 2011 - June 2012)

As a test engineer, I fulfilled several positions at the development department of TomTom automotive.The work involved amongst others:* system test (functional and non functional, software and hardware)* test automation* optimizing test approach within scrum teamThe result was, several successful launches of built-in navigation devices for automotive companies like Toyota and Fiat.Skills: scrum, ISTQB, Python, Linux, Risk analysis, test automation

As a functional test engineer of the engine development department, I was amongst others involved in developing and calibrating the software for a new heavy duty diesel engine for the north American market.The work involved amongst others:* engine software calibration * integration and validation of engine hardware, mechanics and software* functional test work (measurements on oil and coolant system of the engine)The result was amongst others, a new heavy duty diesel engine developed for Kenworth and Peterbilt.Skills: Control theory, engine management software, FMEA, CAN
