About

Embedded Software Engineer

I'm Bora Saktanber — an Embedded Software Engineer with 6+ years of experience in the automotive industry, specialising in Classic AUTOSAR, ECU software development, ADAS systems, and CDD development.

I've worked across the full ASPICE V-model (SWE1–SWE4) on projects for Audi, Thyssen-Krupp, Preh, and Elektrobit, using controllers such as NXP S32K, Infineon AURIX TC29, and MobileEyeQ3.

Beyond embedded systems, I design and build web applications, developer tooling, and AI-assisted workflows — applying LLM APIs and agentic patterns to automate diagnostics, generate documentation, and surface insights from complex embedded data.

I'm drawn to the boundary where hardware constraints meet intelligent software: using AI not as a buzzword, but as a practical layer to make embedded systems smarter and engineering teams faster.
