• Wrote and won proposal for 2-year DARPA SQUIRREL project. (Project management ongoing.)
• Won the CRANE Phase II (sim) and Phase III (real) challenges, which involve a flying drone autonomously mapping and exploring an unknown, indoor environment, detecting objects, and placing those objects in the map.
• Placed 1st in the MoSAIC Navigation challenge and placed 3rd in the Human-Object Tagging challenge.
• Advanced past LifeLink Stage 1 and Stage 2 qualifications. (Participation in Stage 3 still ongoing.)
• Plan, direct, and/or manage several sUAS projects (e.g., SwarmSense, LifeLink, MoSAIC, Te-UAS, RF-TOUCAN).

• Direct Product Line ATL (Automated Test Lab)
• Reduce total DVT (Design Verification Test) time from 5 weeks to 2-3 days
• Save $10,000 - $100,000 per SW release
• Test 8000+ requirements across seven products upon demand (usually nightly)
• Lead a software team (up to 6 programmers) that have automated up to 80% of some DVTs
• Maintain 6 racks of equipment totaling > $1M in assets

• Managed multiple IRAD (Internal Research And Development) projects
• One multi-year project; several (5+) single-year projects
• Oversee budgets of $875k, $568k (multi-year project), and several below $200k
• Manage and direct interdisciplinary teams of up to nine engineers (with disciplines in software, networking, RF, FPGA design, and technical writing)
• Work with programs and IRAD committee regarding deliverables and dependencies
• Coordinate resources to meet variable-length schedules (from 3 to 14 months)

• Supporting the standardization and automation of Product Line requirements and tests
• Awarded L-3’s 2012 Spirit of Excellence award (which recognizes teams that greatly impacted company’s success)
• Designed and implemented a vast project in DOORS to standardize and handle all Product Line requirements and tests
• Through standardization and re-use, reduced requirement objects from 20,401unique objects to 2,449 shared objects (88% reduction) and test objects from 31,952 unique objects to 6,454 shared objects (an 80% reduction)
• Created concrete traceability between 100’s of tests and 1000’s of requirements
• Aided in the automation of tests (which reduces the SW release cycle from 5 weeks to 1 week and eliminates 240 engineering hours) which has saved $100k's in program costs to date

• Providing life cycle engineering of Mini-T, Mini-Ti, Mini-T2 and STINGER modems
• Directed a team (and participated in) the discovery of the root cause of a product reset condition. Tested and implemented the solution, thus preventing the reset from occurring in the field
• Aided in root cause discovery, solution, and implementation of a production failure (improving yield rate from ~70% to ~95%)
• Introduced new flexible cabling that increased product yield from 70% to 91%
• Improved grounding scheme on EMI testing to reduce Ethernet noise by 14-18 dB and bring emissions 10 dB under the limit
• Wrote TP's for - and performed - environmental testing for EMI/EMC, humidity, temperature, altitude, vibration, and rain

• Prepare division for SCAMPI B and SCAMPI A (CMMI Level 3 certification).
• Responsible for reviewing and recommending process changes for Product Integration Focus Area
• Discovered and documented current state of PI. Identified gaps, vetted with management, and recommended process changes
• Completed CMMI-DEV v1.3 training
