Work Experience
Senior Functional Safety Engineer
VinFast
- Developed the CPDU functional safety ISO-26262—including DCDC, an onboard charger, and power distribution—for VinFast EV VF6 and VF7. Applied functional safety ISO-26262 to the CPDU development.
- Designed the controller board for the AC charging device, VinFast Wallbox Charger AC 7.4kW, used at home for VinFast EV.
- Built the PCB to control DC Fan and PCB and connect all other PCBs into the VinFast DC charging station—30kW and 60kW.
Electronics Hardware Design Engineer
ELSYS Design
- Designed a mezzanine with TLK1521 (SerDes 1Gbps) for ZCU102. The board simulates a generator of signal frames (video or image) for testing and validating a spatial instrument.
- Developed an electronic board for controlling an autonomous mecanum wheel robot.
- Automatized and realized tests for validating an electronic board based on FPGA ARTIX-7.
Experience
CPDU for VinFast EV
To ensure the safety of the hardware design, I built hardware safety requirements (HSR) based on the TSR and performed safety analysis through FMEA, FTA, and DFA. I also monitored the hardware schematic design for compliance with the HSR and evaluated the hardware metric of the design (FMEDA) to comply with ISO-26262.
Also, I tested and validated prototypes and supported the hardware team in building work product compliance with ASPICE by ensuring traceability of requirements, design, and validation. Finally, I oversaw the ISO-26262 certification of the CPDU with TUV SUD.
