Synchronized global, interdisciplinary teams to speed up troubleshooting and close critical technical gaps.
Reconstructed and validated the product architecture of an electromechanical e-bike by integrating and troubleshooting critical subsystems (BMS, motor control, sensors, HMI, electronic locking systems). Built a comprehensive system-level test bench for functional testing, fault reproduction, and performance analysis; coordinated suppliers and implemented corrective actions to improve reliability and traceability.
Defined the system architecture and validation strategy for a LIDAR platform developed in cooperation with Elmos Semiconductor; evaluated optical measurement concepts, SPAD detector integration, and system requirements, and created technical recommendations for product development and verification.
Developed LabVIEW-based automation and verification software for a high-precision hydraulic and electromechanical test system for FTE Automotive; integrated NI DAQ hardware for high-frequency real-time capture of physical measurement data. Developed automated test sequences, programmable endurance tests, troubleshooting routines, data logging, and analysis tools to improve test efficiency and traceability.

About the technology
Embedded debug
Lauterbach TRACE32 is a debug and trace environment for embedded systems. It is used when software, hardware, and timing problems need to be understood on the real target, not only in a simulator. Teams rely on it for bring-up, failure analysis, and low-level validation.
Typical work
- CPU and board bring-up on new hardware
- Firmware and boot code debugging
- Trace-based analysis of timing and race issues
- OS-aware inspection of tasks, memory, and interrupts
- Regression support for complex target setups
Ecosystem and tools
TRACE32 is known for its broad target support and its close link to Lauterbach probes, debug modules, and trace tools. Strong specialists work with JTAG, SWD, multicore targets, and scripts that automate repeatable test and debug steps. They also understand how the tool fits into existing build and test flows.
When companies call in help
Teams bring in freelance expertise when a project is blocked by stubborn target issues, a new chip family needs support, or an internal team lacks deep TRACE32 experience. This is common in automotive, industrial, telecom, and other embedded-heavy fields in Germany, where rapid root-cause work can save a release.
What strong specialists do
A good TRACE32 specialist reads the target, not just the tool. They can isolate hardware faults from firmware bugs, use trace to reconstruct execution, and explain findings clearly to software and hardware teams. They also leave behind scripts, setups, and notes that make future investigations faster.
Integration skills
- ARM and other embedded processor families
- RTOS and bare-metal debugging
- Board schematics and signal-level reasoning
- Build systems, symbols, and ELF files
- Lab work with probes, pods, and test hardware
Frequently asked questions
Before you brief your next project: the most common questions about Lauterbach TRACE32.
Lauterbach TRACE32 is used to debug and trace embedded systems close to the hardware. It helps teams inspect boot code, firmware, interrupts, task switching, and timing behavior on real targets. That makes it valuable when a problem only appears on the board, not in a normal software test.
Choose TRACE32 when the issue is deep in the target stack, when multicore behavior matters, or when timing and trace data are needed to explain a fault. Simpler tools can be enough for basic software work, but they often fall short during board bring-up or hard-to-reproduce failures. TRACE32 is usually a better fit when hardware and firmware teams need one shared view of the problem.
A strong Lauterbach TRACE32 specialist usually combines embedded software skills with hardware awareness. Useful adjacent skills include JTAG or SWD setup, RTOS knowledge, symbol handling, and reading schematics or memory maps. The best people can move between source-level debugging and low-level target analysis without losing the thread.
It depends on the task. Basic setup and routine target debugging can be handled by specialists with practical tool experience, while chip bring-up, trace configuration, or multicore fault analysis needs deeper knowledge of the probe, the target, and the processor family. For risky projects, it is smarter to use someone who has already worked on similar embedded platforms.
Yes, many TRACE32 tasks can be done remotely if the target setup is already reachable and someone onsite can power-cycle hardware, swap boards, or check signals. Remote work is often practical for script development, log review, and guided debugging sessions. For early bring-up or lab-heavy investigations, on-site access in Germany is often more efficient.
Lauterbach TRACE32 is usually chosen when teams need richer trace, stronger target control, and more visibility into complex embedded behavior. GDB-based workflows can be fine for simpler debugging, but they often do not cover the same hardware-focused analysis. Many teams use both, with TRACE32 reserved for the hardest problems.
Look for someone who has solved real target issues, not just clicked through the tool. Good signs are clean setup notes, clear root-cause explanations, and the ability to separate software defects from hardware or signal problems. A reliable TRACE32 specialist should also be able to automate repeatable checks and hand over a setup the team can keep using.
No. Lauterbach TRACE32 is common in automotive, but it is also used in industrial control, telecom, aerospace, and other embedded environments. Any project with complex hardware, strict timing, or hard-to-diagnose target behavior can benefit from the tool and the specialists who know it well.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Lauterbach TRACE32 in their recent projects is 91 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 729 € based on an 8-hour working day.
