Summary
Aruna Parameswaran is a Senior Embedded Software Engineer with nine years of experience building robust test applications and validation frameworks for automotive ADAS hardware, currently at Rivian (and Volkswagen Group Technologies). She holds a Master’s in Computer Science from UIUC and has a strong track record automating test workflows, stabilizing test frameworks, and achieving full test coverage across SoC components like CPU, GPU, DRAM, and image encoders. Her background includes production-facing roles at Amazon Lab126 where she owned DRM and SDK features end-to-end, and research work on web UI/UX for open-source data platforms. Comfortable across embedded C/C++, Python automation, and hardware interfaces (UART, I2C, GPIO), she blends hands-on coding with pragmatic design for manufacturable validation. Colleagues know her for translating complex hardware behaviors into repeatable test strategies and for quietly improving processes that speed up vendor and plant validation cycles.
