Firmware development for 3200 irrigation controller

Boise, Idaho

Software and firmware development and management.

I served in a staff position to the Group R&D manager in the Information Storage Group, and later the Group Marketing Manager. I have been involved with the business feasibility of several new technologies, and in establishing new metrics and formalizing processes for new product development.

This position was in Boise, and I managed the development of disk storage systems. I have typically managed three to five project managers, and thirty to fifty engineers. I have been a principal contributor to several five-year business plans, and have worked closely with marketing to initiate our entry into new markets and sales channels. I have managed the R&D Lab targeting and expense forecasting. I have directed several research programs with the HP Laboratories in Palo Alto. I have managed a wide range of projects, employing many different technologies such as optical disk interfaces, specialized intelligent controllers (NV-cache, adaptive algorithms), custom electronics, mechanical systems, software (both OS driver level and applications level), complex real-time firmware, and the development of numerous ASICs.
