Columbus, Ohio, US

• Technical Lead for the Forge/OS platform.
• Designed and implemented a industrial network framework (C/C++) which encapsulated various industrial network protocols, such as EtherNet/IP and PROFINET, into a common messaging interface to minimize protocol-specific.
• Refactored a critical area of code within Forge/OS’s device framework to reduce message latency from 100ms to 2ms.
• Created the Forge/OS client (C/C++, Qt/QML) which runs on an Industrial Pendant and renders the Forge/OS UI to the user.
• Designed and implemented a host abstraction framework (C/C++, Python) used by Forge/OS to communicate with the Docker Host Operating System, allowing Forge/OS to safely modify the host while still being deployed within.
• Developed the system update software (C/C++, Qt/QML) for USB/Cloud-based (AWS) updates to Forge/OS, allowing an end-user to update Forge/OS.

Columbus, Ohio, US

• Team Lead for Forge/OS developers.
• Built a build and release process for Forge/OS, enabling version tracking for bug fixes, API changes, and new features.
• Created a telematics and networking device driver (C/C++, Python, ROS) for Forge/OS, enabling data analysts and other teams to provide critical features such as the ability to backup and transfer user tasks and service.
• Designed and implemented the hand guidance device driver (C/C++, ROS) for Forge/OS, improving the ability for operators to manipulate any robot without the need of an Industrial Pendant.
• Converted Forge/OS to be deployed via Docker, improving efficiency of deployment of Forge/OS into the field.

Raymond, Ohio, US

• Created a specification and common messaging interface for a high-speed network to maximize re-use of In-Vehicle Infotainment (IVI) components within the vehicle.
• Designed and implemented IVI network simulations (C#/.NET) to accelerate validation of unit firmware, reducing the cost to develop the IVI system.
• Developed prototype applications (Android, Java) for other research and development teams to enable quicker decisions on vehicle features, saving millions of dollars in prototype costs and engineering time.
• Created software (Python, C/C++) using Support Vector Machines (SVM) to analyze and classify user biometric data based on cognitive workload, saving hundreds of human-hours in analysis by providing quantitative metrics.
• Designed and implemented a reference network device (C/C++) capable of simulating In-Vehicle streaming data, increasing the robustness of Audio and Video communication.

San Antonio, TX, US

• Designed and implemented control algorithms (Assembly, C/C++) to permit the use of multiple Electronic Warfare subsystems simultaneously, increasing combat effectiveness and performance.
• Created software (C#/.NET) to minimize memory foot-print of assembly code on device, increasing the available memory on device by up to 10%.
• Developed test software (C/C++) to automate data acquisition and measurement, reducing software release test cycles
• Built software (C#/.NET) to automate mission data construction for deployed aircraft, increasing the speed of the aircraft planning and deployment process.
• Analyzed and created recommendations for software changes (C/C++) to flare dispensers, providing better resilience to heat and moisture in desert conditions.

Columbus, Ohio, US

• Designed and developed a prototype beam steering platform utilizing a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS).
• Designed control algorithms (MATLAB, C/C++) to enable users to form and steer beams using a single coordinate input.
• Created concepts for future iterations of the beam steering platform.
