Develop and integrate custom control of large, advanced, multi-system home controls. Work extensively with other trades to ensure the end-user the best possible experience with their home automation system. Advanced integration knowledge of many kinds of systems including, Lighting, Security, Pool & Spa Controllers, Shade & Window control, Solar Inverters, HVAC systems as well as, audio and video. As lead programmer on the Honda Smart Home of America, I was challenged with having to develop a custom thermostat and integrate custom controls code to run the ground source heat pump for the radiant heating and cooling system of the house. I was also, tasked with having to integrate with Honda's Experimental H.E.M.S X( Home Energy Management System); where it was my duty to develop the controls logic which enables the HEMS system to make intelligent decisions like: when is the most energy efficient time to charge the Battery Electric Vehicle, how to mitigate voltage irregularities on the local grid, and how to reduce the homes carbon foot print by choosing the best time and method to power the house, charge the car, or charge/discharge the house's battery array.From the large estates, to the experimental projects, it is my duty to ensure the houses run flawlessly and effortlessly to enrich the lives of our clients and put the final touch on a system which has been, "Engineered to Sing".Media Publications:HSH US:http://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/03/25/business/car-companies-take-expertise-in-battery-power-beyond-the-garage.html?_r=1&referrer=Beach Front Estate:http://www.electronichouse.com/article/home_automation_turns_beach_house_into_resort/
