Omar Tag-Senior ADAS & Embedded Integration Engineer — C++/Python · Perception, Parking Systems & AI Deployment
Check rate
Experience
Founder & Technical Solutions Consultant
TAG Pro
- Engaged by MILLA Group (autonomous shuttle manufacturer) to integrate and harden a safety-critical AD stack toward production: audited the architecture across perception, HD mapping, and positioning, and delivered a gap analysis with remediation roadmap.
- Lead root-cause analysis of sensor failures across a deployed shuttle fleet; shipped remediation in a versioned AD release and drove vehicle-level field validation at multiple operational sites.
- Design and implement interfaces between perception, localization, and vehicle systems in C++; identify integration risks and drive resolution of cross-subsystem technical issues across the AD stack.
- Standardized the client's software development lifecycle by introducing Agile workflows and CI/CD pipelines, shortening integration and validation cycles.
Senior Software Engineer II — Navigation
Mapbox GmbH
- Implemented and integrated an ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) visualization feature into the 3D live-navigation stack of a production BMW infotainment program — C++ core with Java/Kotlin SDK layers.
- Developed cross-platform navigation software in C++, using automated binding generation to expose core engines to mobile layers without hand-written glue code.
- Profiled and optimized the cross-platform architecture for low latency and memory efficiency on embedded automotive hardware.
- Extended test and simulation frameworks for sensor-data playback, enabling validation of complex driving scenarios before release.
Expert Software & Functions Engineer — ADAS Perception
AVL Software and Functions GmbH
- Led GNSS localization quality for a 10 cm-accuracy 3D data-labeling program: designed a three-tier automated assessment framework (signal lock, uncertainty bounds, trajectory plausibility) that cut data-selection time by 40% and flagged 15% of recordings as unusable before they entered the pipeline.
- Transitioned LiDAR-based object-detection components from research prototype to robust production C++; evaluated runtime performance, memory usage, and latency on a new automotive compute platform, and cut processing time 25% via cache-friendly data layouts and parallelization to reach real-time for a customer demonstration.
- Built a vendor-evaluation framework from scratch — hand-labeled golden reference plus automated KPI tooling — that exposed a 20% accuracy gap between data-labeling providers in complex road scenes and directly drove contracting decisions.
- Fronted customer support for a Tier-1 radar-perception platform, resolving over 85% of critical issues within two months; the triage-and-communication approach was adopted as best practice for other customer-facing roles and led to a contract extension.
- Cut new-engineer onboarding from 12 to 6 weeks by creating hands-on perception-stack learning modules, design-rationale sessions, and structured pairing.
- Drove system integration of perception components with motion planning, decision control, basic software, and validation teams — integrating complex software components across multiple subsystems, supported by SIL testing and simulation.
Teaching Assistant, Faculty of Computer Engineering
AASTMT
- Tutored Operating Systems in Linux, structured C++ programming, and computer architecture.
Algorithm Software Engineer — ADAS Perception
Valeo
- Three years on parking systems and low-speed maneuvering functions: developed slot-detection algorithms(C11/C++) across multiple generations of Valeo's Parking Assistance System, shipped to SOP on programs for Audi (zFAS), Daimler, BMW, VW, Tesla, JLR, and Renault.
- Owned the full software lifecycle pre- and post-SOP for perception components under the V-cycle, including unit, component, and integration test design.
- Analyzed safety-critical field issues down to their architectural root cause in the detection/motion-control interaction, advocating and delivering robust fixes over surface patches on live OEM programs.
- Built simulation, testing, and visualization frameworks in Python and C++/Qt supporting vehicle-level validation of parking functions; collaborated peer-to-peer with counterpart teams in Stuttgart, Germany.
Software Developer
VIRAL Virtual Reality Arcade & Lounge
- Built Android and Unity VR applications in C# and Java, from design through customer deployment.
