Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDiyi Xiang is a Senior Development Engineer specializing in AD system integration with a decade of cross-disciplinary experience blending software, mechanical design, and automotive systems engineering. With a Master's in Automotive Engineering Technology and reality-tested skills at Mercedes-Benz R&D and DiDi, he has driven vehicle interface modules, thermal simulation models, and liquid-cooling validation for autonomous platforms. He pairs hands-on mechanical design (MATLAB, SolidWorks, NX) and manufacturing know-how with backend and DevOps contributions to notable open-source projects like Open vSwitch and VMware pyVmomi samples, focusing on networking, automation, and stability improvements. Experienced in ECU/ACU configuration, CAN-based diagnostics, and ISO26262-informed function safety, he moves fluidly between test benches, calibration (CANape/CANoe) and production milestones (SOP/PPAP). Colleagues rely on him for systematic root-cause work—from worm-gear profile scripting to thermal and NVH troubleshooting—while he continues to evolve toward mechanical and manufacturing engineering roles. Based in Beijing with international exposure, he brings both software-driven automation instincts and detailed hardware craftsmanship to complex vehicle systems.
