This position is a collaborative effort between Actia ES and Celad, aimed at establishing an automotive Android Operating System for Renault's cars. Through this professional experience, I have gained valuable knowledge and skills in understanding the intricate details of the Android architecture, special in the context of the automotive sector. I have worked on projects that involve the multimedia stage, which includes handling multimedia components such as audio, video, connectivity features(BT/WIFI), CarPlay and Android Auto. In this position my role involves debugging and analyzing bugs to identify the root cause or responsible package/module for issues related to multimedia. 1- Reproduce the issue: identify the steps needed to reproduce the issue and simulate it, and then follow them to reproduce the problem on my system. 2- Identify the root cause: I analyze the logs to identify the root cause of the problem. This includes examining the logcat logs, kernel logs, and any other relevant logs to determine the source of the issue. 3- Debugging: After identifying the root cause, I use debugging tools to define the exact location of the issue in the code. I use tools such as Android Studio to track down and fix the problem. 4- Create a fix: I work with the development team to create a fix for the issue. This involves modifying the code to resolve the problem. 5-Test the fix: Once the fix has been created, I test it thoroughly to ensure that it resolves the issue without introducing any new problems. 6- Deploy the fix: Finally, I deploy the fix to the relevant systems and work with the development team to ensure that it is integrated properly. By following these steps, I am able to effectively maintain and resolve issues related to multimedia on embedded Android systems. #Android_Studio, Android Architecture, Automotive Android, JAVA ,C++ , Debugging, Root cause analysis, Issue resolution, System maintenance.
