As an Intelligent Visions Engineer it is my job to create advanced artificially intelligent algorithms and deploy them on the edge, with power and efficiency being paramount whilst maintaining the desired accuracy for crucial decisions to be made on the battlefield.As the business group is very new to the field of AI, I have been responsible for creating the AI framework for the company, from the ground up. This includes creating a platform to train and deploy AI models on custom datasets to solve real world problems for soldiers on the battlefield.I have been proud to work on and deliver a wide variety of projects for various military and commercial organizations. I am especially proud of one project whose solution has a current patent pending in my name.Within my role I am responsible for the full lifecycle of these models, the general steps from conception of the idea to the deployment of the product are as follows:1) Prototype/ proof of concept, I primarily program this in Python on a PC setup.2) Data Collection and Labelling3) Conversion of model to lower level language - I generally move from Python to C/C++4) Embedded Linux to deploy algorithm onto product - I have worked with hardware such as general FPGA's, NXP's IMX6's and NVidias Jetson family such as the NANO and the AVX Xavier.5) Testing and further speed/accuracy optimizations.

Student software engineer working in an agile SCRUM team. Work was done primarily in java with some XML. Through this company I gained experience writing code to an industrial standard. Also I became very familiar with code reviews, continuous integration tools such as Jenkins and the importance of creating and running both unit and automation tests. I was responsible for:- Fixing defects issued by quality assurance teams or customers. During my year at this company I solved many time critical problems such as crashes and bugs that were directly prohibiting customers from using our software.- Delivering a variety of features as a member of a Scrum team. These features ranged from creating context menus and highlighting text to improve the user experience to adding small systems that would help customers in there goal for electronic design automation, - One of the bigger projects I was responsible for was the re-designing of the unit test framework to make it more maintainable and easier to work with for other engineers.This job increased my confidence in programming and talking to customers about highly technical projects and I am confident that I can make a positive impact in any future softwareengineering role I take on
