Extended/redesigned/improved 5+ existing test platforms. Efficiency improvement example: wrote 3 lines of code cutting 1 hour from a 5-hour test and saving $M across multiple product lines.Contributed to key R&D projects: 400G (ROSA/TOSA, module: QSFP-DD, OSFP), 100G CFP2-ACO (TOSA and module), Tester Control, optical modulator. Wrote hardware tests.

Technical team lead: created an end-to-end production automation system (starting from work orders to assembly, calibration, test, pack out and live analytics) for 40G QSFP+ on C#/ASP.NET. Wrote ~ 100,000 lines of code in a little over a year (60% of the codebase on a team of 4). Architected and implemented the backend platform including multi-tier data.
