Security application expert on Aurix Device

Catania Area, Italy

Responsible as application developer engineer for SPC564B74xx, a 90nm microcontroller device with PowerPC core, used in automotive environment for body and security applications. Security expert and application leader for automotive applications on 55nm and 40nm microcontrollers, inside BOSCH MDG1 project.The principal activities that I performed were the following:• To lead security activities for mature device (SPC56EBxx) and device in development phase (SPC57xx/SPC58xx). In particular:o Coordination of activities with other team (marketing, designers, engineering) to reach best solution in terms of product development and customer satisfaction. o Standard documentation review (RM, DS and ES) to provide optimal technical support.o Application validation, demo and reference code developer to promote our security products in several technical fairs.o Guarantee a high level of customer support, respecting agreed timescales and commitments.o Provide specific documentation (ANs) in order to anticipate customer’s needs.• To manage customer support and new peripheral evolution as HSM and CSE in automotive systems, comprehending and analysing customer request in order to find solutions and propose new architecture for future devices.• To help the technical community on the analysis of existing and on the definition of new architectures related to Load controls, Diagnostic and Lighting applications for car body systems, in order to decrease customer development time and defining new products fitting application requirements.• To manage specific support needs for 90nm products. This means coordinate areas and designers activities in case of return failure and to lead application activities for SPC56xx and SPC55xx device.
