Led a major year-long effort to design and implement a complex computation on a custom computing device.This computation was described by the designer of the platform as "the most complex program ever written" for the system, and by the Chief of the Special Projects Branch as "the most ambitious computation I’ve seen".The program provides a powerful technical capability, and was awarded the rare honor of a Champagne Presentation.

Washington, Dc, Us

Invited to join the Agency’s Special Projects Branch, which tackles the most difficult and cutting-edge projects.Recognized high performance computing expert. Specialist in one of the Agency’s largest custom computing devices. Extensive experience programming hardware at a cycle-by-cycle level in custom assembly language.Wrote kernel code for a space-time trade-off cryptographic attack, the largest computation ever done on the platform, and among the largest ever done by the Agency. This work provided capability against extremely high priority targets, and was briefed to the Director of the Agency. I received an official Letter of Appreciation.As part of a specially-formed research group, I conducted breakthrough research in a new field of cryptanalysis. Recipient of the prestigious Sir Peter Marychurch Award for 2012, including meeting the Director of the Agency.
