Top SchoolPaul Kerchen is a Manufacturing Software Development Engineer with 14 years of embedded and automotive software experience, now applying that expertise at General Motors after a long technical-lead tenure at Elektrobit.

His background spans from low-level Linux kernel and firmware debugging to high-fidelity vehicle simulation tooling and game-engine–style real-time systems, giving him an unusual breadth across hardware, real-time software, and user-facing interfaces. Colleagues rely on him to translate ambiguous requirements into verifiable designs and repeatable test frameworks that scale to production.
