GENERAL DYNAMICS AIS (October 2004 - May 2010)
Senior Software Engineer
Designed, developed, implemented, and analyzed multiple signal processing
and real time data interface applications. Software applications
implemented in C, C++, and Java on Linux/Unix systems. Researched and
integrated design strategies, product specifications, development
schedules, and user expectations into product capabilities. Provided
technical documentation, instruction, and support to co-workers as well as
customers.
Core Responsibilities:
. Developed and maintained underwater sonar array interface (multiple C
processes involving hardware interfaces, graphical displays, data
parsing, buffering, and filtering).
. Generated wavetrains (used in active sonar) and performed spectral
analysis - informal resident expert for this critical and often needed
job function.
. Documented code development and trained co-workers.
. Demonstrated and explained results to customers.
. Supported on-site system integration and test efforts.
Projects:
Doppler Tracking System
Client : U.S. Government
Team Size : 10-12
Developed optimization routine in C code which utilized Doppler data
gathered in real-time to ascertain the position of a source. Also developed
and evaluated critical subroutines necessary for system operation.
Data Compression
Client : U.S. Government
Team Size : 5-7
Developed compression and decompression processes with 8:1 compression
ratio in C++ code to minimize the amount of data being sent across a
wireless communications channel connecting active sonar stations.
Active Sonar Calibration
Client : U.S. Government
Team Size : 3-4
Developed independent active sonar calibration routine utilizing matched
filtering, re-sampling, and graphical display utilities in order to
determine the output level of the source transmitter. The routine required
cooperation between multiple processes and scripts written in C, Java, and
Octave (similar to MATLAB). Responsible for the development and maintenance
of all involved processes.
. Increased accuracy of calibration simulator routine.
. Improved user interface for viewing results.
Microcontrollers used: Olimex LPC2129 (ARM7), Motorola 68HC11
Projects:
- Traffic light simulator
- Musical keyboard
- Graphical LCD interface (programming a clock display)
- Simple oscilloscope (text LCD display)
GPS graphical tracking system
(May 2004 - July 2004)
Program written in Visual Basic 6.0 to display the current position of a
GPS-equipped vehicle as a trail of dots on an overhead street view. Tasked
for this contract due to the need for a fully functional GPS graphical
interface implemented in a limited time frame. Utilized expertise to
facilitate a quick development of the entire program independently and
successfully demonstrate functionality.
