Project Team Goals: Customize IVI (In-Vehicle Infotainment) SW BSP (Board Support Package) for DENSO HW, and create the factory SW that runs on the IVI unit to verify the HW and release the Production SW.Designed Software System for new IVI project from inception to successful production launch while keeping milestones.Coordinated tasks among the SW team to set priority to keep external and internal deadlines through the variability of embedded SW implementation.Ensured my SW team members were unblocked from their activities and linked them with people to help when they needed assistance.Assigned the appropriate task to the appropriate person for quality and efficiency.Performed standard people manager activities such as setting Goals and Objectives and providing quarterly and yearly feedback to associates reporting to me.Responsible for interfacing with external parties to show understanding of the issue to the customer and work with the Tier 2 companies to drive to an effective and provable solution.

Project: Infotainment System using Android (2014-Present)Control the software releases to internal and external customers.Integration engineer with team responsible for hardware bring up (drivers, OS, bootloader)Continuous integration setup and maintenanceRoot cause analysis and resolution for deep kernel/micro issuesCMMI trained with role in creating and defining CMMI processDesign Validation, EOL Test design and implementation, created an Android app to run to test functionality of board responsible for running Infotainment SystemSupported customer’s needs at Integration Camp to help remove blocking issues by resolving, identifying and mitigating issues.

Project: Human Machine Interface Software Developer/Designer(2012-2014)Lead connectivity system designs for 2 refrigerators, 2 ovens, washer/dryerDefined new requirements gathering and definition process for the team. Trained immediate team, surrounding team on how to create the required documents. Taught other departments how to give input and use the output.Supported Linux based appliance embedded platform (ARM), added over the air update capability, using C, Linux kernel, BASH, Javascript and SQL.Worked with global teams including people in Brazil, England, Germany, Italy, Sweden, India and China

Project: Various mobile software-defined radio ad-hoc network products(2011-2012)Designed high level system using SysML in Rhapsody for requirements, functional flow and interface definition.Collaborated with peers on algorithm and use cases for WIN-T's (Warfighter’s Information Network – Tactical) next release.Project: Mobile ad-hoc network (MAHN) emulators (2010-2011)Created Java GUI based network performance simulator with advanced statistics and graphical reporting, updated and reused in the network emulator.Initiated development on a new embedded network processors (x86, MIPS, ARM), including benchmarking with cross compiled real-time Linux C/C++ source code within a short deadline.Project: Helium (Advanced content distribution system) (2007-2010)Assumed full responsibility of project as Chief System Engineer and Chief Software Engineer Implemented the product using object oriented design patterns targeting the Java platform for ease of maintenance and better platform independence (Linux or Windows).Designed algorithm to provide on time delivery of files across multiple networks reordering transfers and using peer-to-peer transfers to minimize total transfer time.Devised application layer protocol to provide delivery of files across networks at about 98 percent link speed bandwidth over high latency and high packet loss networks.Defined an XML messaging protocol for extensible platform-independent communication between nodes on the network.Engineered system to handle transfers of more than 100GB of data an hour between 2000 locations.Created models for testing and successfully improving both the scheduling algorithm and the transfer protocol.Managed a team of 4-7 direct report software engineers; prioritizing enhancements and bugs being merged into the baseline for successful and on time releases.Presented proposals, requirements and documents to customers on a monthly basis.
