Charted virtual teams and came up with specifications and guidelines for change. Worked with and mentored other groups doing process improvement.- Rescued failing multi-site project on Trusted Platform Management (TPM) Software for Broadcom Ethernet Controllers. Worked with Broadcom Security Team in San Jose and local engineers to manage and pull project back together. Worked with Vendor (Infineon) to save relationship and improve support from their engineering team.- Worked on IEEE 802 Standard for time-sensitive audio/video bridging, participated in adapting IEEE 1588 precision time protocol to layer 2 (IEEE 802.1AS) and became editor of IEEE standard 1722 for audio/video transport protocol over those networks.
