Frank Whalen Email and Phone Number

Frank Whalen is VP of Systems Engineering and Certified LabVIEW Developer at Eagle Lake Systems, an NI Alliance Partner. As a systems test engineer at Raytheon and Bose, and later as enterprise architect and software engineering manager at IBM/Lotus and Harvard Bioscience, Frank developed a big picture mindset, using architecture to manage complexity and to find solutions that best fit with the mission. He's learned to expect things to break, the difference between procurement price vs. life cycle cost, and the importance of design margin, reliability by design, and to “trust, but verify.” At Eagle Lake, Frank delivers test & measurement platforms and real-time embedded systems to a wide array of client projects, from acoustics, additive manufacturing, cryptography, coffee, and continuous flow chemistry, to explosives detection, fuel cell reforming, medical products, pharmaceuticals, and super-premium ice cream. Frank earned a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Syracuse University.
