Designed and coded to test verification requirements using LabWindows CVI “C” to sequence and automate RF measurements for the device-under-test. Used SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) and VISA (Virtual Instrument SW Architecture) commands for control and setup of test measurement devices, such as National Instruments and Agilent products.Maintained and added new instrument functionality to existing LabView applications on an as-needed basis.Assisted Configuration Manager with Synergy SW baseline releases and coordinated formal validations with SW Quality.Completed Raytheon instructor-led classes in C# and LabView.

Member of an Agile SW Development team developing new features in C++ for embedded radar applications running under VxWorks and Mercury operating systems.Designed & coded Java simulation programs with GUIs to emulate external interfaces to embedded SW.Wrote scripts to automate use of our continuous integration process using “Jenkins” to orchestrate nightly builds, unit testing and static analysis using Parasoft C++ test on modified code checked into Subversion.Analyzed, resolved problems in radar’s 1553 Bus Controller-Remote Terminal interface to simulator application. Utilized Tornado to configure & build VxWorks images to run on PowerPC G4 boards.

Developed and maintained software systems implemented in C++ and Java distributed over fifty different Linux& Solaris platforms. Traveled to foreign sites for SW installations and provided operator training.Experienced in coding to interface standards such as: TCP/IP and UDP for socket communications; JMS (Java Message Service) using ActiveMQ; RPC (Remote Procedure Call); XML using Xerces with DOM.
