Co-designer and lead developer for the initial team of driver Software Engineers, to create the distributed, FPGA-based CompactRIO Real-Time platform. Oversaw initial high risk / profile projects (now significant percentage revenue source for the $1.2B company). Detailed information at www.ni.com/crio.• Directed and co-developed initial software architecture and designs for CompactRIO drivers, led software effort, hired, and provided guidance to ensure success for at-risk, complex product line.• Designed high QoS, distributed and scalable architecture, extensible enough to span 10+ years, supporting over 50 product variants, numerous processor families, OSes, and bus interfaces.• Trained Engineers in improving separation of interfaces from implementation, which lowered risk 90%+ (when adding support for new products) and reduced code entropy over 80%.• Enhanced RPC buffer performance 30% by augmenting OOD methods, facilitating isolation of product-specific “performance enhancers”. Performance increase required for subsidiary product-line.• Proposed, negotiated, and led effort for driver performance Automated Test System, reducing annual SDLC by 10%, and increasing Engineer satisfaction (less hand-testing).

Led System Software and global digital signal processing (DSP) teams, oversaw development for signal processing, numerical analysis (e.g., real-time FFT, JTFA/STFT, FSK mod/demod). Brought into DSP group to improve cross-site SDLC, communication efficiencies, and project management; formalized software development processes. Enhanced specification testability and traceability.• Improved cross-site and team visibility from 20-30% to ~100% by co-developing requirements database, automation tools, and web resources; tracked priority and automated progress for each client-group feature request.• Proved per-feature visibility, holding technical leads accountable for weekly progress reports and iterative dev cycles; simplified through my automated progress reporting tools and processes.• Designed a 2-week software training course for NI R&D Shanghai Engineers, providing the foundation for formal Software Engineering processes.
