Product Engineer at Hindustan Aeronautics Limited

About

ADAS | Product Ownership | Safety Innovation I'm a multidisciplinary engineer with 3+ years of experience at the intersection of automotive safety, intelligent systems, and product development. My work focuses on translating complex engineering challenges into real-world impact — most recently leading the AI-powered Safety Alert Zones strategy at GeoJunxion BV, which achieved a 23% reduction in driving speeds around critical zones, directly supporting Vision Zero objectives. My background spans the full product lifecycle — from requirements engineering and geospatial systems validation to agile feature delivery and stakeholder alignment. I've worked across ADAS use cases, ISA (Intelligent Speed Adaptation) compliance frameworks, and location-based safety systems, with hands-on experience in MATLAB, Simulink, GIS applications, computer vision, and systems modelling. Earlier in my career, I built a strong engineering foundation through Formula Student aerodynamics at Camber Racing and industrial exposure to traction control systems and power generation automation at BHEL. I hold an M.Sc in Automotive Systems from HAN University of Applied Sciences (Netherlands) and a B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering from SRM IST Chennai. Currently open to roles in: Systems Engineering | ADAS Engineering | Validation & Verification | Automotive Product Management | Safety Engineering 📍 Based in Bengaluru, India | Authorised to work in the EU | Open to relocation Let's connect if you're working on safety-critical automotive systems or intelligent mobility solutions.
