software development group, developing software requirements and
maintaining traceability in Requirements Traceability and Management
(RTM),
August 95
to August 1997Systems Engineer in the Interdiction Weapons
Division. Responsible for the management of requirements for imaging
infrared (IIR) seekers used on 'smart' missiles. Tasks include the
generation of subsystem specifications, requirements traceability in
RTM, and resolution of conflicting requirements. Strong communication
skills are required for interfacing with system analysts, program
management, and design engineering groups responsible for software,
mechanical, and electrical design. Some customer interfacing was
required in this assignment.
April 93
to August 95Systems Engineering Consultant in the Product
Development Support Center. Worked in a team of engineers who's
responsibility it was to establish a set of standard software tools
for TI's Systems Group (SG). Responsibilities included advising user
programs on the policy, help them develop a computer automated
engineering (CAE) plan, assist and plan the procurement, coordinate
with the system administrators on installation and upgrades, and
monitor the use of the tools at the Lewisville and Sherman sites. We
also planned supplier demonstrations, coordinated training classes and
helped resolve problems with the installation, and use of the tools.
The tool set included System Level Abstraction Tool for Engineers
(SLATE), RS Probe, Matlab and Simulink, Foresight and others.
November 1992
to March 1993Engineering Supervisor responsible for the
integration of the Javelin Command Launch Unit (CLU). My
responsibilities included leading the team of engineers and
technicians that were performing integration of the CLU subassemblies,
as well as integration with factory test equipment and software. I
also assumed responsibility for cost (approximately $200K/month),
personnel assignments (2 EEs and 5 MEs), and overall group
organization and coordination.
March 1990
to November 1992Engineering Supervisor responsible for the
missile level integration of the Antiarmor Weapon System-Medium
(AAWS-M). My responsibilities included leading the team of engineers
and technicians that were performing integration of the missile
subassemblies, as well as integration of the missile with field and
factory test equipment and software. Collateral responsibilities
include being the champion of two unique missile configurations to be
used in design and verification testing, and forecasting and tracking
the system power budget.
May 1989
to March 1990 I worked in the TI/Martin AAWS-M Joint venture
as an engineer responsible to provide technical support to subcontract
managers and buyers involved in the procurement process required for
the AAWS-M program. Responsibilities included clarification of
technical requirements, support of cost negotiations, supplier
selection, and review of supplier performance.
March 1988
to May 1989Engineering Supervisor responsible for the
production support of the AAWS-M missile. I lead a group of six
engineers and nine technicians that resolved design and production
problems in the following areas:
-Launch Sequence Circuit Card Assembly -Telemetry Assembly and
Telemetry Circuit Card Assembly -Switching Power Supply and Power
Supply Circuit Card Assembly -Control Actuator Assembly -Missile
Vibration Testing -Linear Accelerator Testing
My responsibilities included scheduling staff for two shift, seven day
a week operation, and summarizing performance data for technical
review, developing new hires and young engineers, and participated in
the personnel ranking and performance review process.
December 1986
to March 1988Design Engineer responsible for the design
of the Launch Sequence circuit card assembly that activated the rocket
motor squibs of the AAWS-M missile system. This design incorporated
most of the system safing functions and interlocks to avoid accidental
activation of the motors.
June 1984
to December 1986Lead engineer in a production test
equipment group. I lead a staff of six engineers and four technicians
that designed and maintained Automatic Test Equipment for RF, IF,
digital, power supply, and electromechanical subassemblies. My
responsibilities included cost accounts (approximately $30K/month),
establishing a spare parts inventory, and projecting staffing
requirements to support program goals, developing new hires and young
engineers, and I participated in the personnel ranking and performance
review process.
March 1983
to May 1984 Design Engineer in an RF/IF test equipment
group. I was responsible for the conceptual design and implementation
of semi-automatic test systems for production testing of RF and IF
assemblies.
October 1980
to March 1983 Responsible for field support of an
airborne system consisting of an RF sensor and a pipeline digital
signal processor. The tasks I performed included training system
operators, developing data collection routines and system maintenance.
June 1978
to October 1980Design Engineer responsible for the design
of combinational and sequential digital circuits. The tasks I
performed included circuit design, implementation, documentation and
integration into and existing pipeline digital signal processor.
