Over 30 years of experience in the electronics industry. My early career years were spent doing ASIC/FPGA design at multiple companies, while in the most recent years I have been doing systems engineering at an aerospace infrared (IR) camera company. The ASIC/FPGA work provided me experience in all aspects of front-end design: architecture development, RTL design, testbench development, validation, synthesis, static timing analysis, power analysis, processor microcode development and built-in self test (BIST). The systems engineering work provided me experience in a variety of IR detector technologies, writing requirements specifications (HW, FW, SW) and leading multi-disciplined engineering teams.
