Added cellular communications capability to a satellite-based remote asset tracking device. Solely in charge of the end-to-end electronics and software design, leading a team of four to create a completely new communications path from the existing hardware to a web-based server display. This capability significantly increased value of the end product by.

Developed widely deployed low-cost satellite asset tracking device as member of three person team. Completed first firmware release to production 6 months after effort started and achieved target active lifetime of 5 years using 3 AA batteries.Created all firmware, source architecture, and design processes for product. Responsible for source structure.

Smoothly transitioned product development, ongoing design, and continuing engineering activities for all customers of Qubic Systems to engineering staff at Device Solutions.

Created equipment tracking and remote disable product. Synthesized detailed requirements including hardware, firmware, fail-safe, and over-the-air interface system components. Exceeded client expectations using clear written and verbal communication and understanding client vision of the desired product. Constructed prototype in less than 8 weeks and.

Led state-wide multi-disciplinary student team in design and construction of nanosatellite. Blended off-the-shelf technologies and custom built solutions to meet timeline, fiscal, and human resource budgets. Successfully moved project from concept creation to fully functional engineering model in one year.Provided system design direction and advanced.
