Hawthorne, California, Us

Responsible Engineer developing Crew Starship avionics hardware.

Sunnyvale, Ca, Us

- Lead a scalable power validation mechanism for consumer robotic products with 6 successful validation cycles.- Develop three internal PCBAs to support development from cross-functional teams in thousands of units.- Identify complex cross-functional hardware issues and drive them to a resolution.- Assess validation automation opportunities culminating in a proposal with estimated time and/or cost savings.

Mountain View, Ca

- Lead five customer System-in-Package designs (e.g. ECG, EMG, FPGA) from proposal to production in a two year time-frame, including the company's first and biggest design wins.- Designed and tested 12 internal PCB designs used for prototyping, product development, and production.- Validated noise performance on 3 analog front-end designs (e.g. ECG, EMG) with oscilloscopes, signal generators, multi-meters, and Fourier transform tools, convincing a customer to build a second design.- Characterized current consumption on ultra low-power systems to validate component data-sheet specifications, resulting in a detailed analysis with suggestions for further battery-life optimizations.- Developed a CPython API for zGlue's programmable routing network using FTDI's D2XX drivers, whichperformed an order of magnitude faster than legacy tools and simplified customer support.- Lead development of a handler-ready System-Level Test (SLT) framework using Python to ramp-up volume production, automate lab equipment, and optimize quiescent current measurements for low-power systems.

Mountain View, Ca

- Delivered a PCB re-spin in four days of a 28 mm x 11 mm low-power BLE fitness tracker to have a working demo for CES.- Performed SPICE noise simulations on a medical EMG system to validate a proposed design change, leading to the company's first design win.- Developed and verified simple firmware drivers for common digital buses (e.g. I2C, SPI) using a protocol analyzer to make the Systems team more independent.- Modeled components of a low-power fitness tracker using ANSYS to create collaterals for a CES demo.

Santa Clara, California, Us

- Integrated power/signal integrity simulation flows into the platform's design-cycle, resulting in a successful first tape-out.- Calculated expected performance of ADC, temperature sensing, and battery monitoring from system errors.- Measured S-parameters of BLE transmission lines to design and optimize the antenna matching network.

Santa Clara, California, Us

- Created python models for solid-state drive components to automate power calculations- Developed a MySQL database for Quality of Service statistical analysis- Revamped a failure analysis tool to support more solid-state drive SKUs

Chestnut Ridge, Ny, Us

- Conducted tests on a variety of probes to validate their performance- Calibrated electronic PID control circuits to improve stability and minimize overshoot- Updated and redesigned documentation to increase efficiency in production

Redmond, Washington, Us

- Develop a Windows Phone messaging application for the PR Government using Visual Studio 2012 and Visual C# language- Develop internal Windows Phone applications in Visual C# with Visual Studio 2012 for the Marketplace- Promote Microsoft products and skills to intermediate school students by helping them develop their own applications.
