- Wrote C# driver functions dispatched in DLL to control RAM test station collimator targets, blackbody radiation, and RF horn positioning in order to streamline test creation and procedures - Integrated new collimator driver functions and existing RAM guidance section test station control SW into individual ‘manual control’ UIs using Windows Forms and Named Pipes for inter-module comms - Led transition from Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) Blk2 guidance section C++ to Blk2A C# objectoriented factory production test SW. - Led creation and adoption of custom Azure DevOps server for RAM test equipment SW version control (was previously only checksum and file archive based)

Trained T-CNN (Tubelet - Convolutional Neural Net) in Caffe for use in a distributed computing architecture to process dynamic resolution image data. Model achieved MOTA score of 80.3%
