Successfully integrated the Vector Flash Bootloader (FBL) for both NXP and TI SoCs within the Ford FNV3 and FNV4 audio amplifier projects.

Achieved complete bootloader bring-up and ensured reliable operation, enabling secure and efficient firmware update capabilities.

Developed a valid approach for running the Vector FBL entirely from RAM on the TI SoC, addressing unique architectural and memory handling challenges.

Debugged and optimized NXP MCAL and TI MCAL configurations to ensure proper low-level hardware initialization.

Managed specific constraints of DDR-only bootloader execution on TI SoC, including memory mapping and execution flow.
