Leading the Qt and QML development for a number of commercial, R&D and Advanced Engineering projects. Other HMI Tools (Altia, CGI Studio, GL Studio) used for Open GL stereoscopic 3D UIs with TTS.Qt's animation, translation, networking and signals/slots frameworks grafted onto other HMI Tools features.Porting Qt onto Android tablet and mobile devices allowed user evaluation of HMI interfaces which generated many interesting R&D projects gathering interest within Denso for a variety of automotive uses.I pioneered remote QML features (UI, translations, themes), service discovery and network IPC for QObject / QAbstractListModel (prior to the development of Qt Remote Objects) and cloud storage configuration.Working with multinational teams, many demo vehicles and evaluation platforms were developed using CAN and QML to promote new business opportunities mainly involving retro-fitting customer vehicles with our own info-safety equipment and software which I designed and completed to a high customer satisfaction.Investing much time training, researching and writing technical papers concerning the usual and often unusual Qt development possibilities, I have focussed on the power of the QML language and how it can be used to great effect for not only UI design but also for configuration, database, application and tooling development.As the development team has expanded to meet customer demands, I have had the pleasure of delivering Qt training on a number of occasions.Denso contributed the Workload Assessor specification for the GenIVI alliance for which I was a member of the development team on both Windows and Linux using UDP and DBUS interfaces.

Leading the evolution of our in-house XML-modelled HMI Tools to complete a visual refresh of IVI, BCM and Diag UIs for Land Rover. Designing and testing the HMI tools, custom control libraries and embedded C code generator (optimised for embedded resources) to improve quality and time to market.For a Volvo navigation future concept, I developed a user evaluation simulation environment for differing address search strategies and theme designs, used extensively in our UK offices but also in our other international offices in Japan and America.Implemented a client/server HMI Tool upgrade featuring a nonlinear undo/redo stack for network transparency of user actions.I designed an HMI SDK used in multiple projects, 2D and 2.5D simulations, QA auto-test tooling, HMI Tool plugins and documentation tools. The SDK also allowed me to develop common application theme switching concepts.The Volvo IVI system I worked on extensively used a unique curved HMI display concept. For this, I developed an aggressive (and creative) HMI model design and code generation optimisation strategy resulting in increased target graphical performance.My responsibilities also include internationalisation tools and processes. To meet strict cost and QA requirements, I developed a suite of internationalisation process management tools using a new translation software API and created fast best-in-class validation algorithms. These processes were also used with GM IVI project that used theme switching and Arabic right-to-left layouts.For a customer project with GM, I performed a complete HMI overhaul and wrote brand new QA tooling. Focussing more on back-office tool engineering and training, I delivered a series of train-the-trainer workshops to an international delegation to promote strategic partnerships with our American offices and to enable further business opportunities for Denso.

Embedded C++ Programmer for Dense Wave Division Multiplexing (DWDM) 32 channel Photonics Add-Drop Multiplexer (PMA32) Controller for full product life-cycle development under ISO90001.Partnering with a national team of developers and testers I worked on the development, debugging and Firewire/Ethernet tracing of the PMA32 real-time software (pSOS on Motorola ASIC). Since the product could handle city/region-sized telephony traffic, I had to ensure exceptional quality and pass system fault redundancy tests. The software was developed on Solaris/Unix CDE workstations using Sniff+ C/C++ IDE and AMC CodeTAP debuggers and managed by Rational Clearcase.To reduce the configuration time for the PMA system's flash memory boards I designed batch flash memory programmer using an Infineon C167 chip which processed and verified Motorola S-Records over an RS232 interface.Marconi also built local links with education, and I am proud to have managed a successful Young Engineers Project with students from Stoke Park School Coventry, culminating in project exhibitions at the National Exhibition Center, Birmingham, UK and the Royal Institute of Engineers, London, UK.For a period of six months I coordinated a team of software engineers on an HTML/Javascript Network Management Interface specification project and delivered training for colleagues on new working practices and auto-documentation tools that I had designed to improve the overall efficiency of national and local teams.Implemented a bespoke GUI system including Ultra-VNC components for remote controlling laboratory for equipment and managing user allocation to decrease time between code development and testing.
