Objective: Senior Design Engineer ce#11 at Jsassociates
Work Ecliptic Enterprises Corporation Pasadena, CA 2008 -2013
Experience: Electrical Engineer
Worked for a small company on a number of well-known missions and programs:
JPL Grail, Altas 5, Loral Echo-Star/Dish Network and Orbital Cygnus & Taurus
Collaborated on small team to test/verify cameras and camera/sensor controllers
Enhanced power converter performance and stability (buck, fly-back & linear)
Adjusted PCB layouts for A/D quality improvements and cross-talk noise removal
Debugged Gbps TRX, DDR2 RAM, oscillators and video encoders & compressors
Designed filters for sensor, video (NTSC & FireWire) and RF input data interfaces
Customized VHDL/Verilog FPGA code to utilize Opal Kelly board as a RS422 to
USB converter with DDR2 buffers and CCSDS packet/ frame interpreter
Automated C++/C code for testing/debugging of video controller and JPEG2000
video packets via a RS232 serial port and an off-the-shelf PCI card
Modified Ethernet controller driver settings for enhanced GigE camera performance
Transmitted periodic sensor data with the Digi M10/ Orbcomm satellite network
Configured the Libelium Waspmote, the Digi Xbee 900, and a sensor board to send
measurement data from a remote location to a laptop with a Digi Xbee receiver
St. Jude Medical, Sylmar, CA 2006
System Test & Hardware Integration Co-op
Verified hardware for product development (pacemakers/ defibrillators)
Diagnosed various off-the-shelf electronic components (IGBTs, transformers,
op-amps, voltage regulators & DRAMs) for integration into existing products
Trouble-shoot Class-D amplifier design for high power (400W) application
Raytheon: Space and Airborne System El Segundo, CA 2005-2007
Sponsored Thesis: Automatic Target Recognition (ATR): Radar (SAR) Images
Implemented an ATR system in C++/C using a database of SAR Images
Extracted features (edges, corners & peaks) to classify radar images
Compared images with Hausdorff Distance Transform
Developed MSTAR intensity-based algorithms using geometric,
segmentation, region-growing and correlation-based principles
Improved quality using noise-reduction FFT & Gaussian based algorithm
Classified targets by features to determine ATR system accuracy
