Created and lead Tesla Energy's firmware engineering team for the Powerwall and Powerpack product lines. ● Joined the company when there were just a few engineers working in Energy Products and at the start of the initial product design. I then led and built the Tesla Energy firmware engineering team of 30 engineers and interns, and brought multiple generations of products through to production● Hired numerous employees; coached engineers and managers; helped guide the career development of team members; successfully resolved issues between employees; conducted improvement attempts and terminations; organized team structure; sponsored numerous promotions; wrote and conducted yearly performance reviews; ran daily stand-ups; held bi-weekly team meeting; bi-weekly staff meetings; implemented Agile planning practices; helped prioritize activities● Developed firmware for: OTA Firmware Updating, Battery management systems, DC/DC power converts, DC/AC power converts, DC block and inverter controllers, residential thermal controllers, industrial thermal controllers, power meters, and contactor controllers.● Deployed some of the world's largest battery storage installations● Well regarded by employees as a considerate, yet practical manager● Technical hands-on involvement across all aspects of our products● Designed development and validation strategies for products● Responsible for technical direction, algorithm development, planning, releases● Drove firmware testing by utilizing unit tests, static analysis, HIL validation, SIL validation, and simulation● Worked closely with the System Test and Manufacturing Test teams, Fleet Analytics and Field Support teams, and Reliability and Compliance teams● Developed innovative equipment for battery module manufacturing and assisted in resolving Model 3 Battery Module Production issues● Worked with multiple residential and industrial inverter partners

Canara designs and produces remote battery and power monitoring systems, and provides battery fleet monitoring services. Through the monitoring services, they have assembled arguably the largest battery performance database in the world.● Responsible for hardware, firmware, and embedded engineering teams designing battery management, battery monitoring, and power monitoring systems● Project management, new product development, product delivery, and product sustaining● Created requirements, system architecture, hardware design, firmware design, and embedded design● Products utilized CANbus, Ethernet, and were remote server based● Algorithm development and technology investigations● Introduced engineering discipline, reduced wasteful spending, and improved team functioning● Worked with all levels of our business, our customers, and the professional community

Responsible for new product designs, PCB development, electrical systems, micro-controller firmware development, embedded systems design, and software development● Designed and produced a low-volume fluid Nano Dispenser for integration with the Art Robbins Phoenix and Gryphon liquid handler robotic systems● Various product extensions, an embedded touchscreen control and software support for the Phoenix and Gryphon liquid-handling platforms● Designed digital controller and motor controller for fluid handling delta robot● Worked closely with international sales and international customers for technical support

Recognizing an unmet need in the Pharma/Biotech marketplace, I co-designed and manufactured a very low volume dispenser for the life science research and development market.● Negotiated a contract and distribution agreement with a large life science equipment manufacturer and successfully brought the product to market. ● Co-designed and manufactured a very low-volume dispenser for the life science research and development market● Responsibilities involved: Strategic Planning, Design Engineering, Firmware Engineering, Finance, Purchasing, Payroll, Taxes, IT, and working with customers● Sold to Art Robbins Instruments

Hardware Engineer for the J2 High-Speed Digital tester. I designed the digital portion of the system’s main Channel Card printed circuit board. This Automated Semiconductor Tester was designed to test digital semiconductors capable of very high transfer rates at the time.Hardware Engineer responsible for the design of the UltraFlex™ System Control Board. This sub-system was responsible for communications between the test computer and the test system, system clocking, timing calibration, DC calibration, and miscellaneous controls. The design involved ASIC, FPGA, very precise DC level, and AC timing control for calibration of the system. As well as sophisticated PCB designs for high speed, high power, and very sensitive signals.I was responsible for the successful integration of a large number of automated test instruments into a unified system for the UltraFlex™. The instrumentation encompassed high speed digital, wideband analog, and high power DC testing. I worked with a broad range of engineering disciplines and troubleshot problems from DC to light. I am experienced with standard laboratory equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, etc.) and also designed custom troubleshooting equipment for use by others on the project. I also supported manufacturing testing of a High-Speed Digital Test Instrument, working with both manufacturing and test groups.
