Resume of Guy N. Kennerly

OBJECTIVE:

Obtaining a position that will allow for the optimum use of my past experience as

well as present me with the opportunity to acquire new skills.

WORK EXPERIENCE:

General Dynamics Land Systems(HRU)

38500 Mound

Sterling Heights, MI 48310

Automated Test Engineer (5/2008-8/09)

Responsibilities included: Interpret specifications to design, develop, and integrate ATE and

submit engineering changes (ECNs) for any discrepancies found. Design, develop, integrate, and

maintain automated test programs and associated HW for various ATE platforms, subsystem

emulators, Data Acquisition systems, and real-time embedded systems. Designed test software

to perform Power Analysis, logic Analysis, and specific Data Analysis. Design cost effective

electronic test interface adapters, cables, special test circuits, signal conditioning, data acquisition

circuits down to component level. Develop necessary documentation to department standards;

design reviews, electronic schematics, BOMs, wiring diagrams, basic mechanical drawings,

software flow diagrams, acceptance test plans, engineering test plans, risk analysis, test plans,

and project plans. Lead and coordinate electronic and mechanical fabrication, modification, and

repair by communicating effectively with engineers, technicians, and bargaining unit staff from

both inside and outside organizations. Maintain fielded Test Systems at various locations,

worldwide, traveling to remote locations and using remote access tools via the intranet. Repair

and modify systems as needed to ensure continuous support for Manufacturing and Logistics.

Prepare weekly progress status and maintain performance metrics for all assignments. Prepare

and present status charts for program office, and customers as needed. Demonstrate problem

solving skills to expedite completion of all test system development tasks and ensure timely

project completion. First in the automated test group to design, develop and integrate vision

based technology for target acquisition. Developed proof of concept for IRAD project. Designed,

developed, and integrated for weapon station. Last project was to create automated test stand

(ATE) for electro mechanical weapon station with the ability to test and validate to the Critical

Item Development Specification (CIDS). The ATE was able to read gyro data, encoder data and

communicate to two motor drive assemblies to position the weapon station in both azimuth and

elevation at various rates. This enabled the automated test stand to have motion control of the

weapons station assembly. Upon obtaining motion control and adding custom circuitry and gigabit

Ethernet cameras to support vision based technology, the ATE was automatically able to visually

drive to acquire targets for boresighting with sub-MIL accuracy.

IGBTs, and power MOSFETs, Other areas included Core Controls, and Vehicle Integration,

Platform Teams, HDC partners, and suppliers. Responsibilities included: Developing HW

requirements for the battery pack control unit. Performing reviews with the supplier for Battery

Pack Control Units and battery systems HW. Develop HW concepts derived from system level

requirements. Define specifications for battery system diagnostics. Develop and perform testing

procedures for battery system diagnostics. Develop schematics for specific development tools.

Support testing on battery and vehicle level for battery controls. Support vehicle prototype builds,

plant builds and testing.

Allied Transportation Technology

1405 Comber mere Drive

Troy, MI 48083 USA

Park Assist Systems Engineer (6/2006-10/2007)

Deigned Park Assist system for GM and Chrysler. Module design consisted of

schematic design, component selection, board layout and simulation, and generation

of firmware. Conducted design validation studies, DFMEA, PFMEA, DRBTR,

HALT, EMC and failure assessments. Provided guidance on the software validation

requirements for new product development. Responsible for developing and

implementing design validation master plans, authoring protocols, executing

protocols and writing final reports for design validations. Additionally, lead cross-

functional teams (Validation and Development) to identify design and process

validation strategies requirements, critical design parameters, critical design attributes

as well as acceptance criteria. Provided training on validation methods and

procedures to staff engaged in development and validation, as appropriate. Interfaced

with Development and Manufacturing Engineering in coordinating the selection,

procurement, installation and validation of software and hardware for new products.

Created custom software and hardware to support validation testing.

Motorola

15201 Mercantile Drive

Dearborn, MI 48120 USA

Advanced Systems Knock Engineer (6/2003/6/2006)

Worked with a highly motivated team of engineers in redesigning of Panasonic Heads Up

Display with a Star 12 to extend capabilities for better graphics and added control over

the CAN line for vehicle information, entertainment, and navigation systems. Using the

Star 12 microcontroller, created a simulator with a LCD display that controlled

automotive ultra-bright LEDs by selecting different LEDs for various patterns and

controlling brightness through PWM for Chrysler. Independently establish field and

laboratory conditions required to test and evaluate vehicles by performing chassis

dynamometer, engine dynamometer, and track testing. Also, created test plans, signal

simulators, signal conditioners, and data acquisition system for dynamometer testing.

Independently performed knock analysis and location studies with engine dynamometer,

knock sensors, accelerometers, amplifiers, and data acquisition equipment. Analyzed

data with custom built MatLab scripts, that automatically loops through the data and then

plots and saves figure data as bitmaps that could then be easily put into knock reports.
