Senior Advisor & Consultant | Safety-Critical Systems · Autonomous & Intelligent Mobility · Physical AI I advise OEMs, Tier-1 suppliers and technology companies on the design, validation and industrialization of safety-critical, sensor & perception-driven systems across automotive, robotics and intelligent mobility domains. With more than a decade of hands-on experience, I operate at the intersection of sensor technology, system architecture, validation and real-world deployment, helping organizations move from advanced concepts to scalable, certifiable products. I act as a trusted sparring partner for strategic and technical decision-making, especially where complexity, regulation and cost pressure meet. Perception & Sensor Systems Advisory on camera, LiDAR, radar and multi-sensor systems, from architecture and integration to validation strategies and performance assessment. Focus on perception stacks, sensor fusion concepts and sensor-driven safety functions across mobile and stationary systems. Autonomous & Robotic Systems Support for autonomous vehicles, mobile robots (AMRs/AGVs) and intelligent machines operating in structured and semi-structured environments. Emphasis on perception reliability, system safety, operational design domains (ODD) and scalable validation approaches. Automotive & Micromobility Platforms Strategic and technical support for ADAS, automated driving and light electric vehicle platforms, including RFI/RFQ support, system definition, functional safety alignment and industrialization readiness. Logistics & Smart Infrastructure Advisory for perception-enabled logistics and smart city applications, including automated logistics hubs, intelligent traffic systems and sensor-based urban safety solutions, with a strong focus on operational robustness and real-world constraints.
