Started my new position at CGI as a Software Architect working in CGI Space in SatComs.

I worked at CGI under their Space division. I work as the lead developer ESA SCOS 2000 component, spacecraft control and operations system, as well as working with other satellite communication systems, for Europes Galileo Navigational Constellation mission, provided by ESA. I held the position of Senior Software Engineer at CGI.I have worked on software systems used for monitoring & commanding launch vehicles and monitoring & commanding in-orbit assets.

This involves; looking after and training software engineers under my charge, managing the development all projects that fall within the driver simulation department, over seeing/reviewing/certifying all software designs, researching new technologies, working closely with sales investigating new applications and potential markets for our products, and working closely with our technical director to recommend new directions to push our technologies.I am the architect of the Universal Simulation Engine (USE) and of the Advanced Driving Simulator (ADS). The USE is the framework that all of our latest products are based on. A flexible architecture that allows our organisation to rapidly develop state-of-the-art professional low to very high fidelity simulators. This includes high accuracy motion simulation and vehicle dynamics. The ADS is our flagship driving simulation product, designed specifically to be configurable and adaptable for research, driver training, and MoD applications. Supporting interchangeable COTs dynamics systems, AI systems (for traffic/pedestrian behavioural modelling), Visual (IG) systems, eye tracking, hardware systems.I'm also responsible for one of our organisations' most successful budget range of commercial driver trainer products, XP Driving Simulator (XPDS). This is a product I inherited while a senior engine. I have chiefly pushed this product to new levels, directing how the product needs to involve, and keeping it ahead of our competitors. Show less

The ADS system is aimed at high-end commercial applications, police force trainers, research facilities, and military training applications. I am the lead programmer of the core team that developed this software.I also designed a reference architecture for developing simulator systems for XPI Simulation Ltd. This reference architecture formed the SDK known as the Universal Simulation Engine (USE), and was used to construct the ADS product. I chiefly developed the USE for XPI Simulation Ltd.I have also worked with Government organisations involved in the development of manage motorway systems, and have produced prototype training simulators for such applications for XPI Simulation.I have also been involved, as lead programmer, in the design and development of a Navy flight deck officer (FDO) training simulators for the Military with XPI Simulation in partnership with S.E.A. This has become one of the most successful FDO training simulators in the UK. Show less

Senior engineer and lead developer for Imagineer Systems. Responsiblities included managing a team of 15 engineers organised into three teams of which I was the lead developer of the infrastructure team. During my employment I was the cheif software designer of the Mogal video editing suite and designed and developed the core software and sub-systems for that software package.

Titles worked on include: PSP - Advent Shadow (shelved due to publisher funding), PSP - Black and White Creatures (shelved due to publisher funding), PSP - Sid Meiers Priates (Released).Responsible for creating character AI behaviour, character control handling, animation state based blending systems, effects, game user interface & custom controls plus environmental sound systems.

Worked as a games/technology developer for the EyeToy brand. Tiles worked on PS2 - Play, PS2 - Groove, PS2 - Play2, PS2 - Chat, and the Cameo technology featured in PS2 - Play2 and PS2 - TIF2005.Main role involved developing new software technologies for the EyeToy web camera, graphics engines, animation players, collision systems and environmental immersion systems.
