Client: Cummins Inc.

Project: Modeling & Simulation Tools (Cummins)

• Developed and maintained reusable Simulink-based control and simulation libraries, along with custom Model Advisor checks, to enhance model quality, ensure JMAAB and ISO 26262 compliance, and enable consistent integration across control and plant models.
• Integrated control logic with plant models in Simulink-based environments to validate system behavior under various operating conditions
• Executed MIL/SIL testing to validate control logic and AUTOSAR auto-generated C code, integrating MATLAB/Simulink Test workflows into Jenkins-driven CI/CD pipelines for automated build, regression, and reporting.
• Developed MATLAB-based automation tools, including composition model creation and harness generation scripts, to streamline model integration, improve simulation workflows, and enable efficient controller–plant validation
• Configured and optimized Simulink Embedded Coder (ERT and AUTOSAR target files) for production-grade C code generation.
• Conducted thorough static code analysis with Polyspace, resolved issues to comply with MISRA-C and CERT-C standards, and enhanced auto-generated code for project-specific requirements.
• Collaborated in Agile teams, served as Scrum Master, and facilitated DRB reviews to ensure project alignment and technical support.

Project: Emission Solutions – Aftertreatment Controls

• Developed ASIL B/C-compliant mechatronic control algorithms in MATLAB/Simulink for diesel aftertreatment systems across multiple DEF delivery architectures (UL2, IUDC, HHP), integrating sensors, actuators, electronic control hardware, and embedded software to ensure precise dosing, emissions control, diagnostic robustness, and compliance with ISO 26262 and regulatory requirements.
• Configured and executed auto-code generation using Simulink Embedded Coder, integrating and validating C code in ECU software for simulation and HIL testing.
• Designed and validated OBD (3-step & 8-step) diagnostic strategies for emission-related faults, performing MIL/SIL simulations, ECM bench testing with injectors/pumps/sensors, and Failure Mode Effectiveness Testing (FMET) to ensure regulatory compliance and diagnostic coverage.
• Conducted FMEA and detailed requirement analysis to identify potential failure modes, implement safety mechanisms (plausibility checks, limp-home strategies), and enhance functional safety and system robustness.
• Performed extensive ECM bench validation and field data analysis to verify control performance, improve reliability, support certification (OBDM documentation), and develop feature tuning guides for calibration and deployment
