• Team lead for the implementation of Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) feature for the ASR9k. Oversaw design and platform implementation of this key feature needed for customers. Managed milestone deliveries and resolved dependencies to keep the aggressive schedule of this cross-functional, highly visible project on track and delivered with quality. • Integrated and supported L2 Carrier Ethernet features including VPWS, VPLS, AC, PW, MAC learning/aging flooding and unicast forwarding.• Created and executed Integration test plans on multiple router topologies using a combination of all L2 Carrier Ethernet features. Test plans were written from a customer viewpoint for implementation, usability, and maintainability. • Automated sanity test cases using TCL that were used by all engineers to validate features on code commits.• Highly skilled at troubleshooting complex configurations on real-time embedded systems. Collaborated extensively with development test teams, system test teams and customers to trouble shoot, isolate and drive issues to resolution.• Mentored new team members, responsible for training on technology, processes and IOS-XR.

• Key member in early stages on development of the next generation IOS operating system, IOS-XR. IOS-XR was designed to be highly scalable, multiple component, package based software. • Team lead for testing several infrastructure components in IOS-XR including configuration manager, XML agents, and CLI parser.• Created and executed test plans from System Function Specifications with a customer focus in mind. Test plans were to verify functionality, feature interactions, and usability. • Designed and implemented automation scripts using TCL that were able load routers, execute tests, and gather debug logs on failures. Enabled submission via web interface that allowed all engineers to submit and verify functionality. • Responsible for new lab setup to support team of 10+ engineers. Lab consisted of 20+ devices including routers, switches, terminal servers, power management and traffic generators.
