• Rincon Research designs, builds, tests, and fields digital signal processing (DSP) products and services for the United States Defense and Intelligence communities.Lead architect on a modular, event driven, high data.
• Brought in to fix a project that was on its way to failure. Made major architectural changes and successfully delivered the project.
• Restructured an algorithm to take advantage of CPU vectorization, achieving a 2X performance increase. This algorithm had already been heavily optimized over a 10 year period.
• Implemented a phase coherent, parallel, N-stage, sub-band tuner capable of real time tuning of a 100 megasample per second input stream on a 2006-era quad core CPU.
• Implemented a modular parallel correlation engine that was 300% faster than the previous implementation.
• Implemented time classes used by all scientific code to support femtosecond resolution time.

• Theta, LLC is the partnership I formed to trade in the markets.Trader, strategy developer, and manager for my private fund, Theta, LLC. Strategies are predominantly short option strategies. (Javascript, Typescript.
• Developed a web application for managing open trades. This app displays hundreds of option quotes and trade adjustments in real time.
• Developed a custom strategy for getting returns uncorrelated from the market.

• GearHead Software is the company I formed to sell the tuning software that was created from my efforts to reverse engineer a Harley Davidson engine control module (ECM).Developer of MyTune (https://tunemyharley.com).
• Disassembled and reverse engineered the HCS12 code in a Harley Davidson electronic fuel injection (EFI) engine control module (ECM).
• Implemented a secondary bootloader for programming the ECM.
• Designed and built hardware for interfacing with the Harley vehicle bus.
• Implemented firmware using the ChibiOS realtime OS.
• Implemented an AES encrypting bootloader for firmware updates.

• Scientific Technologies Corporation (STC) is an international public health professional service company developing large scale web based communicable and chronic disease surveillance systems.Lead developer of the JDO.
• Wrote over 50% of the code used in five communicable disease systems.
• Increased performance of aggregate reporting by a factor of 100 by reducingnumerous database queries into one query.
• Decreased object allocation 90% when loading object graphs from the database.
• Optimized listing of object graphs to display in less than one second.
• Implemented a multithreaded, multiuser locking system to ensure data integrity in allSTC systems.

• Newmonics was a startup company developing a clean room Java virtual machine for use in embedded​ a​nd real time systems.Developed the virtual machine on PPC, X86, and ARM architectures on Windows, Linux, and VxWorks.
• Developed the industry's only Java debugger capable of seamlessly debugging JIT compiled Java code through the JDWP specification.
• Developed the entire low level layer of the virtual machine debugger interface according to the JVMDI specification.
• Reduced scheduling latency from greater than 1 millisecond to less than 100 microseconds by finding and removing long atomic operations.
• Decreased memory usage 10% by redesigning object header layouts.
• Decreased memory allocation time 50% by redesigning and implementing a newmemory layout.
