Mentored 3 teams of engineers across variousgeographic sites by proving assistance indebugging, explanation of feature set, andthorough code review of storage controllerfirmware.Held training sessions for new team members toreduce ramp up time.Provided assistance in early board bring up byidentifying and addressing issues found in emulationand traveling to other sites to help with issues foundwith prototypes.

Established processes and led development to allowfirmware to rapidly support new storage controllers.Those processes resulted in faster design andprototyping of boards by Microchip and other OEMs.This was identified as one of the reasons OEMs andpartners chose to work with Microchip for storagecontrollers.Created framework to allow for collection of logsand diagnostic information from storage controlleron faults. This framework was extended over… Show more Established processes and led development to allowfirmware to rapidly support new storage controllers.Those processes resulted in faster design andprototyping of boards by Microchip and other OEMs.This was identified as one of the reasons OEMs andpartners chose to work with Microchip for storagecontrollers.Created framework to allow for collection of logsand diagnostic information from storage controlleron faults. This framework was extended over theyears and became the most crucial data collectingfeature used in identify problems in the field.Led development of transition to industry standardcommunication (SOP over PQI) for SmartRAIDstorage controller from previous vendor specificimplementation.
