▲ Created and maintained a SCADA system using Ignition software that connected to an SQL database control and laboratory systems over an OPC-UA and MODBUS protocol▲ Supported existing controls applications with upkeep, troubleshooting, and creating new features on ongoing basis. Most of these systems were running Allen-Bradley PLCs (MicroLogix, CompactLogix, and ControlLogix) or running LabVIEW programs. ▲ Help develop/drive controls strategy and platform roadmap based on business objectives.▲ Collaborate with internal customers and 3rd party vendors/agencies to create new systems, integrations into existing systems.

Managed a small contract engineering firm that specialized in developing LabVIEW code that ran data acquisition and controls systems. ▲ Duties included all aspects of running a business: accounting, project management, design engineering, testing, and customer relations. ▲ Managed and designed 49 projects (including upgrades).▲ Project example: Control system for a fuel cell. ▲ Project example: Test system for hand-held power tools.

▲ Developed test procedures and ran tests for all new products developed by the division: environmental, HALT, ESD immunity, etc. according to industry standards such as IEC 60601-1▲ Designed Automated Test Equipment (ATE) using linear electric motors, LabVIEW, and network analyzers. Fully documented it – including BOMs, schematics, maintenance log, and training.▲ Demonstrated ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, team oriented, multi-tasking environment and to be willing to do what it takes to meet customer commitments.

▲ Worked as part of the New Product Introduction (NPI) Team to influence product design, transfer products to production, and sustain products through product End-of-Life (EOL).▲ Ensured design for manufacturability (DFM) and testability (DFT) of PCBAs, fabs, ASICS, and interconnect products. ▲ Early prototype testing, troubleshooting and debugging to find root cause failures and drive back fixes to engage engineering or Contract Manufacturer.▲ Responsible for driving post-release value-engineering (cost reduction) activities.

▲ Developed an interface control circuit that allowed the user to define the light intensity for vision inspections systems.▲ Tested all aspects of a machine vision system using such equipment as analog and digital oscilloscopes, protocol analyzers, and logic analyzers. ▲ Helped develop hardware and software for ProVision, a Windows NT based machine vision inspection system written in C++.
