- Providing hands-on consulting services in the field of medical device software design and development.- Bringing deep technical expertise in signal processing pipeline design, implementation, and optimization.- Guiding QMS process creation and execution to ensure FDA-compliant pre/post market product development cycle activities, and support associated regulatory submissions (510k, PMA).

Novi, Mi, Us

- Spearheaded the design, development, and commercialization of SoftVue, an operator-independent, class III 3D whole breast ultrasound tomography system with the first of its kind tissue characterization capability (sound speed, attenuation).- Optimized design to facilitate clinical integration to support a 2-patient-hour data acquisition workflow and image reading times under 3 minutes.- Built a culture of engineering excellence across all aspects of the development lifecycle for new medical devices to ensure on-time and on-budget delivery, promote automation and process simplification, increase transparency and integrity, and maintain alignment with overall business objectives.

Novi, Mi, Us

- Oversaw the rebuild of the entire software development team by hiring, managing, mentoring, and facilitating the professional development of a new team of 10 software and DevOps engineers. - Established new processes and infrastructure for the SDLC, tool validation, source control, issues tracking, and CI/CD in compliance with applicable FDA regulatory standards to enable sustainable growth of the organization.- Increased the systems’ patient throughput from 0.1 to 2 patients an hour and improved the image resolution by 10-fold by applying rigorous scientific standards and methods leading to state-of-the-art finite difference modeling and image reconstruction algorithm CPU/GPU acceleration.

Novi, Mi, Us

- Increased the systems’ patient throughput from 0.1 to 2 patients an hour and improved the image resolution by 10-fold by applying rigorous scientific standards and advanced investigational principles to proactively and efficiently resolve reliability, manufacturing, and supply chain issues.- Raised $1M+ in grant funding as Co-principal Investigator to finance the development of novel ultrasound imaging methods and novel transducer ring calibration techniques and drive the overall enhancement of Delphinus’ IP portfolio.- Supported three 510(k) submissions and contributed to several patent applications.

Novi, Mi, Us

- Led the design, implementation, and optimization of state-of-the-art tomographic image reconstruction algorithms and software to drive the commercialization of a novel ultrasound tomography scanner for breast cancer detection.- Collaborated with a 10-person team to ensure the viability of scanner throughput at 2+ patients per hour.

Detroit, Mi, Us

- Performed theoretical and applied research in ultrasound tomography to develop novel imaging techniques in support of breast cancer prevention, detection, and therapy in collaboration with international institutions, including Western University, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.- Researched high-intensity focused ultrasound methods for thermal ablation using a ring transducer.- Demonstrated the feasibility of full waveform inversion techniques for high-resolution imaging of the breast, leading to a clinically viable implementation with best-in-class sound speed/attenuation imaging capability for SoftVue.
