SUMMARY

Electrical Engineer with extensive experience in systems engineering and

testing. Highly skilled in requirements development and test procedure

preparation. Strongest attribute is uncovering hidden faults that have

escaped previous detection and lie dormant waiting to strike.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

BAE SYSTEMS, Fridley, MN, and Washington DC

Developer of Army Combat Systems

and Engineering Support Provider to FAA 1999-2010

Senior Systems Engineer, Washington, DC, 2010 - Present

Performed detailed requirements analysis for FAA NAS ERAM. Developed

collision risk probability models

. Analyzed requirements for FAA ERAM system upgrade, resulting in timely

provision of corrections and updates to requesting client as to

testability and completeness.

. Generated data streams required to populate base nodes of Runway

Collision probability model, resulting in more accurate predictions

from the model

. Created structure and node descriptions for Taxiway Collision

probability model, generating cost savings by reusing many components

from the Runway Collision model.

Software Staff Engineer, Fridley, MN, 2002-2009

Performed final system test on completed robotic cannon system. Tested

cannon software in simulation lab environment.

. Created automated software loading system to update code on system

hardware, resulting in a time saving of 95% from previous manual

system.

. Performed system demonstrations for customer representatives, which

were singularly instrumental in keeping development project funded.

. Created test procedure for final buy-off of software, ensuring

customer acceptance of the final product.

. Created automated test scripts to increase efficiency and

repeatability of testing.

. Tested software and hardware together, troubleshot and solved many

problems previously undiscovered.

. Identified and escalated discovered issues to development staff,

verified implementation and operation of solutions.

. Created system safety requirements for cannon, resulting in the

ability to create much more robust code that accurately reflected the

complex and dangerous nature of a system designed to handle high

explosives.

for Simulation System used for Offensive Avionics system for B1B aircraft

. Identified, troubleshot, and solved issues revealed during test of

simulation system.

. Tested Simulation System for B1B Offensive Avionics to certify

readiness for use in actual avionics tests, permitting the simulation

system to be used in subsequent verification tests on the actual

software product.

Engineer II Seattle, WA, 1991-1995

Supported FAA Certification Test on data communications software.

Conducted functional tests on 777 Aircraft platform, and Conducted tests

of software in testing lab environment.
