The Embedded and Open Systems Group conducts research to design, develop, and deploy next generation high-performance real-time embedded processing systems for use on air, ground, and sea-based platforms located at the tactical edge. Work includes embedded real time operations with VxWorks as well as MSP430’s and/or ARM processors for a space system application.

• Proven experience developing deterministic real time systems with DSP algorithm application using MPSoC architecture• Co-led design and development of firmware download process using ethernet TCP/IP communication protocols to meet time and memory requirements• Refactored C++ application of video processing algorithms onto newly acquired hardware devices while diagnosing and maintaining system requirements; with the use of Matlab driven performance simulation and verification models• Created C/C++ applications of hardware peripherals (such as Flash NAND and FPGA register R/W) in order to model and simulate the project application in a real system environment• As a certified Scrum Master, successfully coordinated an agile scrum team of 6 developers through various build plan iterations and offered application support to distinct cross department teams

Rodinia Solutions is a young and ambitious consulting agency that assists customers with various aspects of product design including development and production.• Led the design of a real time (RTOS) embedded C software design and met project criteria such as: high speed GPIO manipulation, TCP socket & IP communications, I2C/UART serial connectivity, memory address partitioning, GUI creation and flow, and cross device communication and data exchange• Oversaw the creation and modeling of an SoC project which implemented verilog based RTL design, C++ application code, and uBoot system partitioning to test an existing embedded device• Proficient in soldering electronics, troubleshooting circuitry, and PCB schematic analysis• Executed deadlined-based group projects through Jira, Git, and Microsoft Teams
