▪ Technical lead for E2E debugging, fault-tracing, and analyzing issues across the entire system withproficient knowledge in localization, perception, motion planning, and vehicle control subsystems.▪ Architected Einride’s first local RTK base station, which included system design, component selection,hardware-in-the-loop testing, and on-site implementation. Critical in enabling first full-time deployment.▪ Uncovered software bugs via fault tracing during vehicle testing. Developed solutions and patched relevantmodules.▪ Interfaced with customers and engineering teams to ensure robust operations by reducing vehicledowntime through rapid on-site issue resolution.
