Embedded Software EngineerNorthrop Grumman Jul 2022 - PresentFalls Church, Va, Us -
Senior Embedded Software EngineerGeneral Atomics Nov 2015 - May 2022Transitioned from contract to full-time and continued developing software within the Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) program. Redesigned a legacy application as a multi-threaded, event driven state machine interfacing over Ethernet with other applications and a redundant remote partner. As a team lead, created a new database access layer application and associated client library using MySQL Connector and Boost libraries (shared memory, event, interprocess mutex). The application monitors/maintains all MySQL connections while collecting statistics, verifying all communication paths, reacting to faults, and handling client log messages. With a combination of C and C++ clients, the library provides dual entry points. Significantly modified existing database tables and clients to use the new library and newly created stored procedures. CPU usage, database delays, and network traffic were noticeably reduced. Both efforts included detailed design documentation. Received 2 MVP awards in 2017.Development Environment: Linux, Eclipse, C/C++, MySQL, CVS, TeamForge, Beyond Compare, Understand.Moved to the GA Railgun project within the Missile Defense organization as AAG moved from development to maintenance. Currently developing hardware control and database code on micro-controllers. Also creating the emulators necessary to validate Ethernet communication for all interfaces.Development Environment: Visual Studios 2017 64-bit console and WPF applications, Arduino IDE, C++/.NET, MySQL, SVN, TeamForge.General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems (Aerotek Contract) – San Diego, CASoftware Engineer – November 2015 – April 2016 Developing software within the Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG) program. This is mission critical C/C++ code in a Linux environment. Assignments have included the database and related applications for the HealthMAP prognostics and health management system.

Senior Embedded Software EngineerCalsense - California Sensor Corporation Feb 2015 - Sep 2015Carlsbad, Ca, UsDeveloped embedded C code for the CS3000 Irrigation Controller; the industry leading advanced resource management system. Up to 12 ARM9 based controllers in a chain can monitor and control hundreds of stations as well as other devices. I was responsible for creating GUIs and supporting software to program a variety of communication devices directly from the CS3000. To provide field programming capability, the controller was required to access each device CLI interface through a serial interface and emulate user navigation and command keys. The FreeWave FGR2900MHz serial radio provided long range communication between controllers in a chain using master, repeater, and slave topology. The Lantronix PremierWave XC gateway connected the master controller to the internet via cellular service. The Lantronix PremierWave XN connected via wifi. The Lantronix UDS1100 –IAP connected via Ethernet. Calsense systems are used to control non-irrigation devices such as ball field lighting, park facility door locks, and fountains. I delivered a complete set of “lights” screens modeled after the look, feel, and underlying structure of irrigation code. Users can set a 14 day rotating schedule with multiple On and Off times each day, manually operate lights, view live usage, view daily usage, and access functionality via the web (I provided database hooks; not the web code). Commands and data were synced between master and slave controllers using tokens and token responses. Real-time data was stored in flash files, battery backed memory, or SDRAM based on read/write frequency and importance.Development Environment: NXP LPC3250 processor, FreeRTOS, SlickEdit, Rowley CrossWorks with ARM9 JTAG interface, Perforce SCM, FogBugz bug tracker, and PuTTY serial console. -

Sensors combine STM32 ARM processors, a proprietary ASIC, and wireless communication (Bluetooth Low Energy or TI C1101 radio transceiver). -
Senior Embedded Software EngineerRockwell Collins Feb 2013 - Jan 2014Cedar Rapids, Iowa, UsConsulted in the Electronic Checklist software engineering group on embedded commercial avionics systems thru January 2014. Project responsibilities: Redesigned EXIP (an open-source Embeddable EXI Processor) to perform EXI-to-XML decoding as a linkable library. Efficient XML Interchange (EXI) is a highly-compact binary encoding of XML data. EXIP Library clients include the electronic checklist and flight deck alert/display systems. The target is embedded avionics systems conforming to DO-178B requirements. The source was not initially designed for flight purposes. Extensive rework has been necessary particularly in memory management and fault handling.Secondary responsibilities: Writing requirements & documentation, product analysis & testing, team product rearchitecture, automated testing script peer reviews, and development environment issues.Primary Development: Embedded C, MS Visual Studio, MS Office, ClearQuest, DOORS, DO-178B level B, EXI, EXIProcessor, XML, UltraEdit, Understand, Beyond Compare, Bullseye Coverage, TortoiseSVN, AGS, Eclipse, Lotus Notes, PREP, ARINC 661. -
