About Me

I'm Sam George, an Embedded Software Engineer based in Kochi, Kerala, India with hands-on experience in automotive-grade software development.

At Electrifex, I worked on cutting-edge automotive systems — from a Telematics Control Unit that connects vehicles to the internet for 24/7 remote access and OTA updates, to Battery Management Systems deployed in EVs and hybrids for multiple automotive giants.

I've also explored security domains like OPTEE and collaborated with AOSP teams on Android head units — bridging embedded Linux with the broader automotive software stack.

Currently open to new opportunities where I can bring deep embedded expertise to challenging automotive or IoT engineering problems.
