Architected and authored a 100,000+ line-of-code verification framework, named PyATE, written in Python and C++, that was certified to RTCA DO-330. This framework verified safety-of-life code, up to DAL- A (the highest safety level recognized by the FAA). PyATE was chosen by many of the programs in Collins Melbourne Florida.The testing rigs included software-defined radios, SIP (Voice over IP), and sophisticated hardware-in-the-loop black-box testing setups; These complicated interfaces were implemented in-house, by the PyATE team, because no commercial off-the-shelf equipment existed for our needs.Created the PyTRAC, a touchscreen Raspberry Pi and Python based tablet, as a replacement for a $12,000 avionics data bus analyzer that was created in the late 1990s. Did the CAD design, PCB design and layout, embedded C++ software, Linux embedded application, and all verification testing

Received a $100,000 capital investment from the prestigious HAX hardware accelerator. Moved to Shenzhen China for 4 months to attend the HAX startup accelerator program. Hired four employees.Designed and built a low-cost pick-and-place robot with computer vision and AI, intended for the SMT prototyping market.Ended up in the 90% of hardware startups that fail.

Architected a modernized LabVIEW test environment consisting of modular libraries and software abstraction layers which allowed future-compatibility for various models of test equipment and UUT's via standardized interface. The test suite worked flawlessly through an FAA audit.Discovered and corrected several serious timing problems before customer software deliveries.

Designed and built an autopilot test rig for the factory dept.

Architected and wrote a suite of LabVIEW test/certification software for an aircraft WAAS Beta-3 GPS receiver, certified to RTCA DO-229D. The test suite was responsible for extracting raw pseudorange and other measurements from the GPS under test, and comparing it to actual computed satellite ranges within the GPS simulator, via UDP network interface, in real- time, under various interference sources.

Designed and built several automated test stations to replace slower manual avionics test solutions. Used data acquisition cards and custom LabVIEW applications to solve domain-specific problems.Designed and built an automated 40,000-pound hydraulic test stand for testing aircraft landing gear.

Maintained SMT production line equipment for component electronics manufacturer (SMT robotic pick and place machines, reflow ovens, wave soldering machines).SMT and through-hole soldering experience.
