Note:
The course tries to be as easy to digest as possible on the topics presented. While it is considered a 'beginners' course to work in the industry, it is not to be confused with an 'absolute' beginners course on electronics or computer science. Understanding source code, basic boolean algebra and familiarity working with specifications will help. Comparable courses are part of a Masters's Degree curriculum. A Bachelor's level understanding of Computer Science, Mathematics or Electrical Engineering is recommended.

Instructor
Product Architect with 25+ years of solid experience within the IT/Software industry.
Looking back at my career in developing innovative software technology, I advised and helped multiple top industry companies worldwide to establish and grow new digital areas.
A snapshot of industries and companies I have worked with includes:
• Automotive: Jaguar Land Rover, Honda, Nissan, Toyota, Volvo, CEVT...
• Semiconductor: Fujitsu, NEC, Renesas, NXP, ARM...
• Transport suppliers: Continental, Hitachi, Bosch...
• Avionics: Boeing, Airbus...
• Banking: Erste Bank Group, Mizuho...
• Telco: British Telecom, A1...
I was a contributor to industry-shaping innovations as:
• The Time-Triggered Architecture - TTP/C: used today in multiple high safety required applications as aeroplanes, railways, military equipment.
• FlexRay: A leading automotive protocol part of nearly every modern vehicle within the current automotive market.
My past studies in the domain of distributed, fault-tolerant real-time systems enabled me to work worldwide with international customers from all industries.
To give some context, we are surrounded by embedded devices that we interact with on a daily basis. Actually, most of them are sensitive to unexpected environmental events.
Hiccups in some smart devices can be tolerated in some devices, but in others, real-time critical ones, they can become harmful to human beings. This situation is, in particular, challenging for larger, sometimes moving objects as cars, aeroplanes, trains, industrial, medical or military applications.
Especially today, in the days of device autonomy, it is non-trivial to build safe and secure connected devices.
On a day to day basis, in practice, this means designing systems architectures based on distributed, networked, embedded software technologies to enable products to be safe, secure and at the same time add value to the end customer.
While the market I operate in is not new, it is hard to find talent in those areas.
Hopefully, some of the practical classes will allow you to accelerate, change or jump start your own career.
