Phoenix, Arizona Area

Supporting system level testing and analysis, architecture re-design, and process improvement of 787-9 flight control software releases at Honeywell Aerosystems. Control software is implemented in Matlab’s model based Simulink/Stateflow and complies with DO-178B. Tasks include: • Developed tool suites tailored to model-based design including best practice/syntax checkers, difference tools, complexity metric analysis, and batch editing. Strongly emphasized clean, usable, maintainable code. • System focal for reviews of low-level testing error reports. Scripted analyses to increase task efficiency.

Irvine, Ca

Supported the development and deployment of an unmanned helicopter prototype through hardware/ software evaluation and design, performance simulation and analysis and field testing of systems. Tasks Included: • Designed, validated, and debugged C++ software for use with sensor packages to monitor main rotor gearbox subsystem performance / health. Modeled nominal performance through filtered data trends. • Optimized methods for data access, analysis, and plot generation through use of Matlab scripts. • Investigated anomalies experienced during testing. Illustrated causes and correlations graphically. • Organized, archived, and databased test data using a suite of tools based in Java, C#, and SQL.

Greater Los Angeles Area

• Prepared and delivered lectures for introductory physics courses during weekly review sessions. • Conducted intensive exam review sessions, presenting material to auditoriums of over 200 students.

Usc Fabrication Lab

Headed efforts to generate analytical models and simulations of a 1/6th scale RC Harrier. Tasks included: • Created 6DOF nonlinear sim. incorporating flight mechanics, inertial properties, and environment using Simulink. • Displayed simulation states through visual aid FlightGear permitting pilot interaction with models. • Built up aero-performance tables for entire flight envelope using XFOIL and AVL.
