Senior software engineer with 10+ years in Android systems engineering, the last several years focused on Android Automotive OS (AAOS) as a long-term contractor for Ford, with prior experience at GM. I work across the full stack of a modern automotive Android build — from C++ HALs and native services down to Linux internals, SELinux policy, and the USB stack, up through Python-based diagnostics tooling and system-level Java/Kotlin services. Recent work includes deep-dive debugging of ANR incidents in AOSP Android 16 (lock contention, binder threading issues), OEM-specific process/service interaction analysis, and Apple iAP device authentication integration. What I bring to a project: Strong root-cause debugging discipline — I work from evidence, not speculation, when diagnosing system-level issues Comfort moving between layers: native C++ code, kernel/Linux behavior, and application-level Android Experience with the practical constraints of shipping automotive software (OEM requirements, certification, long-lived platforms) Independent, low-oversight execution — I've spent years on contract work and know how to scope, communicate, and deliver without hand-holding Open to Android/AOSP work broadly — automotive, embedded, or general Android systems — as well as adjacent C++/Linux systems engineering.
