Sara Gallian

Senior Manager, SDV & Automotive Programs at Eclipse Foundation

Sara joined the Eclipse Foundation in October 2022 as SDV Program Manager. She started her career as a researcher in the field of plasma physics, but quickly changed her mind and moved to the Automotive world where she worked as a developer for ADAS functions. After a few years of coding, Sara discovered her interest for managing people and projects, and moved to team and group leading in the field of Intelligent Mobility. After 12+ years in the US and Germany, she finally found her way back to Italy where she enjoys mountain biking and climbing.
