Oracle Cloud InfrastructureMember of Network Qualification Team supporting test and debug across a range of products. Transceivers Subject Matter Expert, owning roadmap and technical interactions with vendors. Qualifying 40/100/400G transceivers and AOCs for deployment into diverse production networks and evaluating and qualifying multiple new L2/L3 switches and routers and new software releases. Writing Python code to automate basic acceptance test cases to increase future efficiency

Debugging datacom cables and optical modules, supporting both internal and external customersActing as technical lead driving discussions, planning, and executing extension of a test initiative to add coverage of optical modules, AOCs, and active copper cablesExtending and maintaining capabilities of team laboratory by ordering supplies and capital equipment, including assuming responsibility for internal orders and lab supplies

Evaluated, modeled, and tested EDR (100Gb/s per port) optical components including XCVRs, Mid-Board Optical Modules, optical connectors, back-plane interconnects, etc. Engaged both vendors and contract manufacturers as Engineering Point-of-Contact, supporting definition, launch, and follow-up (incl. on-site), for both new and existing optical networking products. Contributed to the design of networking products based on the optical technologies for switches and HCAs, including specifying changes needed in host silicon FW to enhance host-module interactions and supporting bring up and driving debug of proto systems at multiple sites. Acted as unofficial laser safety officer in charge of working with internal engineers, our vendors, and outside certifying agents to obtain system certifications needed to begin shipment of product, including driving IP development to reduce optical hazard levels. Attended multiple standards body meetings, such as IEEE 802.3 and IBTA, as Oracle’s representative.
