The landscape
Cars are software platforms now.
The software-defined vehicle is a meaningful break from the traditional automotive software stack. OEMs and Tier-1s are consolidating ECUs onto high-performance compute platforms, shipping over-the-air updates that change vehicle behavior post-sale, and monetizing in-vehicle features through subscription. That shift demands a different kind of engineering discipline — faster release cadence, but with the same functional-safety and cybersecurity obligations that the regulator has always expected.
We build for that intersection. Whether it's connected-vehicle backend platforms, OTA campaign management, telematics & data lakes, in-vehicle HMI / IVI applications, or the analytics behind connected-services product decisions — every engagement is engineered to ASPICE, ISO 26262 (where ASIL allocation is in scope), ISO/SAE 21434 for cybersecurity, and UN R155 / R156 for CSMS and SUMS.
We've shipped fleet, telematics, and dealer-facing platforms with the kind of uptime and concurrency that hundreds of thousands of vehicles demand — and we treat regulatory traceability as part of the build, not a phase at the end.

Challenges we hear
Where automotive software programs run into trouble
ECU consolidation
Moving from 50–80 ECUs to a few zonal / central compute units is a multi-year architectural transition. AUTOSAR Adaptive, container runtimes, and mixed-criticality scheduling all enter the picture.
OTA at scale
Hundreds of thousands of vehicles, fragmented HW/SW variants, partial updates, fallback strategies, and regulatory traceability. None of that "just works" without explicit campaign-management infrastructure.
Cybersecurity obligations
UN R155 requires a Cybersecurity Management System; UN R156 requires a Software Update Management System. Both are now type-approval prerequisites in much of the world.
Connected-services monetization
Subscription features, data services, EV-charging integration — the business model is changing faster than most backends were designed for.
Vehicle-data leverage
Petabytes of CAN / sensor / event data — used today mostly for warranty triage. The value sits in product analytics, predictive service, and feature optimization.
Dealer / aftersales experience
The dealer body's tooling is fragmented; aftersales SLAs hinge on systems that were built before connected vehicles existed. Modernization here is high-leverage and underrated.
