Description

Expert FPGA & Critical Systems Design (DO-254, IEC 62566, EN 50129)

Expert in programmable logic (FPGA) and embedded systems, I work onhigh-criticality projects (DAL-A, SIL4)where reliability is not an option. My approach combines normative rigor and hardware expertise to transform your complex specifications into robust and certifiable solutions.

Areas of Expertise & Critical Sectors:

**Functional Safety**: Mastery of standardized development cycles: Aeronautics (DO-254), Nuclear (IEC 62566), Rail (EN 50129), and Defense/Space.

**FPGA Design**: Specification, architecture, design, and verification. Expertise in image processing, high-performance signal processing, motor control, and precision instrumentation.

**Debug & Expertise**: Analysis and resolution of complex defects on electronic boards and in constrained environments.

Consulting & Methodological Support

Beyond development, I support teams towards certification:

- Implementation of complete FPGA processes and traceability strategies.

- Drafting model documents and defining strict coding rules.

- Auditing and upskilling internal teams on safety requirements.

Automation

Expert in **Python**, I automate design workflows to increase reliability and productivity:

- Generation of test patterns and interfaces.

- Development of custom tools (author of an open-sourceHLStool).

- Creation of qualified test benches for hardware verification/validation.

- Automation of simulations/syntheses/on-board tests via Makefiles or other scripts.
