Developing motion capture software for training of body tracking algorithms.

Productized a pipeline that ingests street view vehicle sensor data (LiDAR point clouds, perspective camera images and pose path) and generates content for a high definition (<10cm accuracy) 3D map. Worked with research engineers to develop & train algorithms for feature detection, classification and geometry fitting (including lane boundaries, poles, barriers, signs and occupancy grids). Led the development of a suite of interactive 3D tools that our data analyst team used full time to annotate detections and generate new ground truth using customized lidar selection and geometry fitting widgets.Ran vehicle localization simulations to determine feature importance and precision requirements.Tech: C++17, Python, Qt, Eigen, GeographicLib, LAStools, VTK, CMake, GIS, Git/Gerrit/GitLab, ParaView, ROS2, Ubuntu, Java.

Worked on in-house cross-platform rendering middleware, including 2d and 3d graphics engines and the accompanying tool suite. Worked with artists to formalize non-standard asset pipelines and gather tooling requirements. Prototyped complex programmatic 3d animations and procedural shader-based visual effects with game designers. Provided studio engineers with support for around 80 games per year (performance, troubleshooting, documentation & training). Evangelized new engine and tooling features. After the merger I started supporting the new Unity-based platform.Tech: C++, OpenGL, GLSL, OpenSceneGraph, Havok Animation, QT, CMake, gdb, 3ds Max, MaxScript, AngelScript, CentOS, Ubuntu, Windows, OS X, Jira, Jenkins, Unity3d, C#.

Participated in conception and development framework libraries, tools and games for an online casino including multi­threaded C++ server's power recovery, game history & replay, math model simulation, Flash based presentation layer, staged asset loading, localization and automated SEO of game content. Developed automated art asset validation tools, load tests, deployment scripts for testing environments and supported production issues. A few months after I left, the team spun off as Williams Interactive.Tech: C++ (STL, Boost), ActionScript, Stage3D, JSFL, PixelBender, Ant, SQL Server, Perl, Lua, Apache HTTP server, CentOS 5, IIS, SilkPerformer.

Re-architected and developed a non-destructive image editing web application for pre-processing of high end printed products. Co-designed and implemented an innovative user interface, replaced the existing data model with a more flexible scene graph structure and refactored old code to fit within the decided frameworks and design patterns.Tech: ActionScript, Flex, AIR, BlazeDS, Java EE, JBoss, ImageMagick, Blender, Python.

As a part of a graduate assistantship, I tutored computer science students in disciplines including programming, algorithms, data structures, math, graphics, networking and operating systems.

Customized EMC Documentum's content management platform’s WDK applications with business logic to fit clients' processes. My roles included scope analysis, implementation, server and database administration, deployments, data migration and production support.Clients: Fidelity Investments, Wilmington Trust, Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Crown Partners, KeyBank.Tech: Java EE, Struts, WDK/DFC, SQL, Tomcat, WebSphere, Solaris, Ant, XSL/FO, VB, VMWare.

Designed and implemented a visual web based front end for a componentized workflow engine that generated an interactive node diagram that visualized and controlled the distributed agents in real time. I also became the company’s de-facto graphic designer.Tech: Java 2D, JFC (Swing’s precursor), JavaScript, Yefemea (internally developed programing language).

Implemented standalone utilities for format conversion, validation and publishing of a legacy SGML-based information management platform.Tech: SGML, VC/C++, Omnimark.
