• Developed and maintained the firmware running as an integral part of a 2-way Automatic Meter Infrastructure system; written in C. Completely rewrote firmware in the first year, drastically reducing its memory footprint.
• Led the team that designed and developed firmware for a second new product that would replace the previous products and allow monitoring by either the older 1-way or the newer 2-way endpoints (or both simultaneously).
• Spearheaded development of an algorithm and wrote firmware to implement automatic sensing and dynamic setting of input gains based on changing electrical grid characteristics; US patent 8428201, April 23, 2013.
• Heavily involved with system conversion from VxWorks to Linux.

• Designed and developed embedded software and performed coding, debugging, testing, and troubleshooting.
• Maintained and developed firmware and software running automatic printed circuit board optical scanning equipment; written in C and C++.
• Translated user requirements into engineering requirements, planned and executed the changes to the source code, and performed quality assurance on changes to ensure the overall efficiency and operation of the.
• Software ran under the Sun Solaris and Mandrake Linux operating systems and the firmware ran on a 68K microprocessor under the VxWorks RTOS.

• Led a small team in design and development of firmware running a network-aware flash and ROM emulator.
• Reverse engineered 5-year-old C code into modular system of C++ objects, resulting in highly maintainable and understandable system that was adopted as the company standard model for future systems development.
• Participated in high-level design, requirements gathering and market positioning of radical upgrade to existing NetROM product replacing existing processor with PPC405GP.
• Supported other development groups with C++ design and RogueWave Tools.h++ expertise.

• Developed and maintained over one hundred firmware components that were used throughout the product line.
• Lead a group in implementing advanced networking configuration on a connection-based switch.
• Participated in definition and development of lightweight flow accounting protocol (LFAP) which supports advanced networking configuration and accounting for each connection.
• Reduced boot-up time of product line from over 3 minutes to under 30 seconds.
• Designed and developed infrastructure supporting individually loadable and unloadable software modules in a proprietary RTOS written in C++ and running on an Intel 80960 processor.
• Designed and implemented a flash file system in C++ robust enough to use in an embedded networking switch.
