PROFILE

Kzwicker

Developed core ECU features for Gaucho-Racing/Firmware, focusing on embedded C programming and CAN communication within automotive systems. Delivered a high-frequency telemetry and control loop, implementing a state machine for GLV, precharge, and drive-active transitions, and standardized status updates at 50 Hz to enhance real-time observability and diagnostics. Built robust dash panel button interaction logic, introducing reliable button press state management and updated state handling to improve operator input consistency. Collaborated on validation through HOOTL, HITL, and human-in-the-loop testing, ensuring code quality and readiness for future UI enhancements. Work emphasized firmware development, state machine design, and embedded systems integration.

April 2026: Delivered the ECU Dash Panel Button Interaction feature for Gaucho-Racing/Firmware with robust button press state management and updated state handling. The work, tracked under commit 08d6d0ca54f43962d307e033dda3f4243128bbe9, establishes reliable and predictable dash UI input, laying the groundwork for future dash UI enhancements. No standalone bug fixes were recorded this month; the feature itself addresses interaction reliability and reduces button misreads. This effort involved cross-functional collaboration and planning for HOOTL/HITL/human testing, demonstrating strong proficiency in embedded UI design, state machines, and version control. Impact includes improved operator experience, faster validation cycles, and a stable foundation for upcoming features.

February 2026 focused on delivering a robust ECU telemetry and control loop for Gaucho-Racing/Firmware, enabling higher-frequency status updates and reliable state management. Implemented the ECU state machine with GLV, precharge, and drive-active transitions, integrated CAN data transmission, and increased status update cadence from 250 ms to 20 ms (50 Hz). Standardized ECU status messaging cadence to 50 Hz to improve telemetry consistency and observability across subsystems. The work establishes a foundation for faster diagnostics, safer real-time control, and smoother integration with URCA, with thorough validation through HOOTL and human-in-the-loop testing.
