Summary
Alexandru Cohal is a Development Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience building embedded and automotive software, currently working on AUTOSAR drivers and memory stacks for automotive sensor systems in Barcelona. He has developed ADAS prototypes, closed-loop simulators and fleet back-end processing at Porsche Engineering, and brings deep embedded expertise from wireless sensor networks, real-time RTOS work, and 3D computer vision research at DFKI. Comfortable across C, C++ and Python and tools like DaVinci, TRACE32 and MATLAB/Simulink, he navigates ASPICE processes and modern engineering workflows (GitLab, Jira, Confluence). Having lived, studied and worked across Romania, the UK, Norway, Germany and the Czech Republic, he blends multicultural problem-solving with practical system-level thinking. Outside work he’s the sort of engineer who’s passionate about “anything that blinks, beeps or spins,” and balances technical curiosity with hobbies like tennis, hiking and cooking.
