EXPERIENCE
Emerson Control Techniques America, Eden Prairie, Minnesota
2000 - Present
Project/Lead Engineer
Project Manager and Lead for software/firmware group developing
programmable servo drives. The firmware development is re-usable across
the several different platforms. The software development is to provide a
"Motion Made Easy" user experience.
. Instituted OOP standards for both software and firmware development.
This lead to increased re-use-ability of code allowing expansion of
product derivatives and simplify moving across multiple software and
hardware platforms.
. Oversaw the creation of the product's qualification database tool that
ensures repeatable product testing and quality. Features include:
Resource allocation, Progress tracking, Real-time reporting and quality
coverage and Test performance/history.
Created, tracked and maintained product schedules for each release. This
included: Review and schedule current marketing needs/requirements,
product issues/defects and resource allocation and scheduling
. Worked directly with customers to resolve issues and develop solutions to
meet their specific application needs. This involvement occasionally led
to new product requirements and releases. I worked with CableCam, who
makes the camera behind the quarterback in football games.
. Developed many innovating product ideas including Electronic Camming,
Timed Indexing with adjustable final velocity and Real Time programming
Software Consultant
1990 - 2000
Fisher-Rosemount, Eden Prairie, Minnesota (1998 - 1999)
Developed an object-oriented framework for next generation measurement
devices. The framework was written in hopes of simplifying future
development of systems by allowing "plug and play" of different sensors,
A/D's, LCD displays, and other hardware peripherals and to be able to
adjust the dynamic interaction of these peripherals independently of the
software components that controlled them. The framework had the ability to
scale down for use in applications as small as 48k.
Imation, Oakdale, Minnesota (1997 - 1998)
Developed PCI based fiber optic communications cards for medical imaging
equipment. Design included ALTERA programmable logic devices.
Data Card, Minnetonka, Minnesota (1995 - 1997)
Developed firmware for a low cost high reliable credit card personalizer.
The concept was to allow a customer to immediately receive a programmed
credit card on the spot. The firmware was written in object-C. The
firmware controlled the operation of several stepper motors which moved and
printed the credit card.
Owatonna Tool, Owatonna, Minnesota (1994 - 1995)
Developed serial and pulse width modulation drivers for a 6803 based car
analyzer tool.
The Trane Company, Little Canada, Minnesota (1993 - 1994)
Developed PC based service tool to monitor vent control devices on RS485
link. Software allowed devices to be reprogrammed as well as searching
link for active devices. Software was written using Microsoft C++.
Forward Technologies, Plymouth, Minnesota (1993)
Developed automatic tester for STD bus micro-controller based A/D card.
Work included proposal concept design and software/hardware design. The
tester was PC based. Software written using Borland C++.
Spectra Computer Systems, North St. Paul, Minnesota (1992 - 1993)
Software development for equipment used to measure thickness of ceramic
paste used for integrated circuits. The device used a Cyber Optics Laser
which was moved across the paste with a stepper motor. All measured
thicknesses were saved in ASCII format so that it could be read by Lotus.
Interactive Technologies, Inc., Plymouth, Minnesota (1990 - 1991)
Develop residential and commercial security systems.
