-Analog designer of a wide range of electronic products. Took specifications from concept through architecture design, simulation, and circuit layout. Assisted test, characterization, and manufacturing. -Developed written rules and guidelines for new product development processes. ESD performance of the design group improved 10X under the new guidelines. -Performed experiments and failure analysis to improve product performance. -Initiated and completed several competitor reverse engineering projects including bench work and construction analysis to determine competitor's positioning and capabilities.

Was National Semi until sold to Fairchild in 1997) -Analog design of high performance logic and customer driven products including parallel port drivers, LED drivers, clock drivers, and power supply watchdog products. -Completed independent financial analysis of several product families. Determined that a redesign of 2 product families would result in a 70% cost reduction per device. Sold the project to management and completed the re-design, meeting the 70% estimate.

-Responsible for cost structure of $4 million VHC product line. Included spec setting, yield enhancement, test time reduction, and managing buy resell agreement with Toshiba. -Managed and reported on all aspects of P&L, including pricing, forecasting revenue and reporting/tracking sales. Automated financial reporting for all product lines. -Developed and executed new product launch plan and strategic positioning of the family with assistance from the marketing group.
