About me

I’m a Sr. Automotive Engineer in Central Florida focused on ADAS, vehicle dynamics, battery testing, headlamp research, and turning complex test data into clear engineering decisions.

I evaluate ADAS behavior, vehicle systems, and emerging technology in real-world conditions.

I turn test plans, safety procedures, instrumentation, and data analysis into defensible findings.

Hi, I’m John Partridge. I’m a senior automotive engineer based in Central Florida with 10 years in ADAS, vehicle testing, and vehicle-safety research. My current work centers on technical test planning, hands-on engineering analysis, safety oversight, data review, and clear technical reporting for modern vehicle systems.

My focus is ADAS: behavior, sensing limits, control performance, and operational boundaries, and vehicle dynamics, including kinematics and compliance, moment of inertia, and center of gravity measurement. That work is rounded out by battery quality and performance testing, validation of battery testing instruments, headlamp photometry and glare research, instrumentation, data acquisition, and repeatable analysis workflows. Earlier in my career, I led test-facility work and helped advanced-driving features move through validation programs; that background still informs how I manage risk and keep field execution grounded.

What I do

I help teams validate ADAS systems from vehicle setup through test execution, data review, and clear engineering recommendations – work that supports safer, better-behaved vehicles.

Vehicle Instrumentation

Vehicle prep, robotic controls, OxTS positioning, AB Dynamics equipment, and sensor-ready setups that keep tests repeatable and data clean.

Vehicle Testing

Track and proving-ground testing across NCAP, IIHS, rollover, stability control, trailer tow, and ADAS validation programs.

Data Acquisition & Analysis

Data collection, MATLAB post-processing, signal review, and practical analysis tools that turn raw test runs into clear engineering findings.
