Working on Beyond Compare

Building the new Atlantis University Student Information System Portal.

Integration software for a generic small satellite platform, both the embedded software and ground monitoring.

Working for Bombardier Transportation.My core task was to create an interface between .NET framework applications and C/C++ libraries with dynamic marshaling of the transferred structures.

Working on Legacy Software Systems in GE Transportation, a division of Wabtec

Working in a fast-paced environment integrating the Avionics software and firmware to achieve a successful rocket launch on a very aggressive time-frame.Redesigned the whole software stack around a Mapping Framework which automates the Command & Data Handling, Sensors, and Actuators, from the physical connections up to the Ground Station.The low-level development happens in C99 (MISRA 2012 complaint), using ChibiOS as RTOS, and our hardware and drivers. Each board belongs to a stack (connected by SPI), and each stack communicates with other stacks through an industrial switch and TCP/IP.The Guidance, Navigation, and Control algorithms use a high-level modeling tool, Simulink, which is also capable of auto coding (generating the corresponding C code equivalent to the model).The middle-level software was developed in Delphi and acts as the bridge between the rocket and the Ground Station software.The Ground Station is a LabVIEW set of virtual instruments, receiving and sending information through shared network variables connected to an OPC Server.The Mapping Editor tool takes care of capturing the design and generating the code for modifying the behavior of the Mapping Framework and OPC Bridge.
