Experience
Mercedes Voice Assistent
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF2QoszY9hEAs an architect, I define end-to-end architecture, formulate API contracts and integration patterns, and build low-latency multimodal data pipelines. I provide turnkey architectural management—formulating and coordinating solutions within the engineering team, finalizing approvals through stakeholder reviews.
As a result, a next-generation cross-platform NLP ecosystem (Android Automotive/Embedded Linux) was created and launched into production, embedding cutting-edge concepts such as AI agents, mixture of experts (MoE), and RAG.
I ensured compliance with ASPICE L3 processes and implemented high-performance, multimodal digital stream-processing pipelines using GStreamer, achieving sub-10 ms latency and reducing memory consumption by 30% through deep C++, Kotlin, and Python optimization.
