ENGINEERING WORK EXPERIENCE

Sumaria Systems Inc., Fairborn, OH.

RF Spectrum Engineer, 2007 – Present

Provide RF spectrum engineering support for 49 Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC)

and Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) program offices. Examples of this support include: L-3 Com

data links for Predator and Global Hawk UAS's, Harris AN/PRC-117G radio for Special Operations

Forces, Raytheon AN/APG-82(V)1 radar for F-15 Radar Modernization Program, and numerous AFRL

small UAS and satellite programs. Evaluate and review the technical data concerning the RF

characteristics of program office’s equipment to prepare and process government certification documents (DD Form 1494, SCS, and EL-CID formats). Check equipment compliance with NTIA, MIL-STD and

AFI standards, requiring research to verify accuracy of information provided by equipment manufacturers. Provide support to the national-level Air Force Spectrum Management Office (AFSMO),

as they process the certification documents for Federal and Department of Defense approval of the RF

systems. Also provide status and technical assistance to RF spectrum managers within the 88th

Communications Group, as well as those working at other military installations and contractor offices to obtain radio frequency authorization (RFA) for testing and operation of new and existing RF equipment. Process foreign coordination documents to AFSMO for coordination with host nations to help support the RF spectrum needs of AFLCMC and AFRL programs outside the US&P. Track HNC status in Host Nation Worldwide Spectrum Database Online (HNSWDO). Perform estimates of hours to be worked on

projects and projected projects for coming fiscal year.
