About Daniel Brannon

I am a highly skilled management professional with nearly 30 years of experience in a broad spectrum of digital technologies. My primary career focus has been in the software field, though my educational background and some of my work experience was more hardware focused. As a life-long learner, I enjoy finding new challenges that allow me to grow personally and professionally. Over the past several years, I have developed a love of photography, especially landscape, night sky and astrophotography.I thoroughly enjoy working in collaborative, team environments, and sharing what I have learned over the years with younger members. Passion is what drives me in being the best I can be, and helping others do the same. While I have been in a manager/director role for over 15 years now, I have continued to roll up my sleeves and get my hands dirty all along. I truly enjoy the engineering work, but it also helped keep my skills current and better prepared me to mentor others.

Most recently, we built a sophisticated e-learning platform as a responsive, progressive single-page web app. Most projects produced software-based study guides used by U.S. Air Force members which we developed in a variety of technologies including HTML5/PHP/JavaScript, Adobe AIR/ActionScript, iOS/Objective-C and WPF/VB.NET.

  • Sonic Solutions
    Sr. Engineering Manager
    Sonic Solutions Jan 2003 - Jun 2008
    I began this job through an acquisition (Sonic acquired Veritas' Desktop & Mobile division).I manage a global team of engineers providing support services to the rest of the engineering organization. The primary services provided include build automation, installer development, software development, systems administration and software license management. I have extensive experience working with team members located overseas (China mostly)
  • Veritas Software
    Senior Software Engineer
    Veritas Software Jan 2000 - Dec 2002
    Veritas acquired Seagate Software, where I previously worked. Upon my return, I initially focused on maintenance work for the Emergency Restore product that I developed while working for Seagate Software. The next major challenge was to drastically refactor the install development process to cut hours off the build times, and transition to the use of Windows Installer for logo purposes. I developed a complete install authoring toolkit based on the Windows Installer SDK, and designed an optimized arrangement for producing installers that reduced turn-around time for builds from two hours to five minutes. Next I created a system for managing OEM product configuration settings, that was designed to allow non-technical OEM reps to configure builds to order and deliver them without the need for engineering support. This improved average turn-around from over a day to about 10 minutes.
  • Strasbaugh, Inc.
    Senior Software Engineer
    Strasbaugh, Inc. Apr 1998 - Nov 1999
    My main job focus was to enhance functionality and performance of existing CMP machine control software architecture written in C++ for the Windows NT platform. I lead a successful project to redesign the shared database interface module, eliminating a major source of system problems. I was appointed to represent the software department on a multi-discipline reliability task force. I also organized and oversaw the software department’s version control system.
  • Ariatech Interactive
    Owner
    Ariatech Interactive Oct 1996 - Mar 1998
    I started this business to develop an idea that I had for a six-axis computer joystick. I designed and constructed five prototypes of the joystick, personally prepared a patent application, and successfully obtained the patent to protect the invention (patent #5854622). I developed DOS and Windows 95 drivers for supporting a fully functional joystick prototype design. I compiled a thorough business plan and held technology demonstrations of the joystick for several major manufacturers.
  • Seagate Software
    Software Engineer
    Seagate Software Aug 1992 - Oct 1996
    I began this position in a part-time capacity while completing my coursework at Cal Poly. Initially, I was tasked with maintenance of batch scripts for automating builds, and then transitioned into a Quality Assurance role. After being promoted to a full-time software engineer position in 1994, I developed installers used for several DOS and Windows applications, implemented internal systems for automation and OEM product customization. I later lead a project for the development of a new product called Emergency Restore for Windows 95 where I implemented support for long filenames in DOS applications.
