SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS:

Experience with a variety of embedded software applications for the

automotive industry. Experience with Rational DOORS, C programming, MKS

SCCM tools, Vector CANalyzer and other data acquisition and analysis tools.

Looking for staff level embedded software development position.

WORK EXPERIENCE:

2013: Delphi Automotive, Auburn Hills, MI

Software Engineer - Automotive Door Control Module (DCM).

. Analyze OEM vehicle system function design requirement and design and

write low level software in C language for I/O processing. Test software

on in-circuit emulator.

. Write test vectors and execute black-box unit testing on application

level software modules.

. Experience with IBM Rational Synergy SCCM tool, MATLAB

1998 - 2012: Continental Corporation, Auburn Hills, MI

Controls Software Engineer - automotive antilock braking and stability

control system (ABS/ESC).

. Received a patent (No. US 6,895,357 B2) for Steering Angle Sensor

calibration algorithm.

. Oversee configuration, modification, testing and release of C-language

embedded control software for microprocessor controlled ABS/ESC system.

. Meet and communicate with the customer regularly to discuss requested

software changes, test results, and project schedule.

. Coordinate with several software engineers in multiple countries.

. Modify C-language software on as needed basis. Wrote and bench tested

project-specific software functions such as switches, warning lamps,

buzzer functions and CAN bus signals.

. Work closely with vehicle test engineers participate in vehicle test

trips, both in the US and abroad.

. Experienced with MKS Source Integrity SCCM Tools, Vector CANalyzer and

other proprietary data acquisition tools.

. Write formal bench and vehicle testing orders prior to software release

and review results.

. Release software for production builds.

. Investigate, refer, communicate and track resolution of software issues.

As software project leader, I logged issues in MKS issue tracking system,

assigned them to software and test engineers; reported issues to customer

and helped assess the severity, impact, etc. In some cases, I personally

did the data analysis, and software changes. In other cases, I was

overseeing resolution of issues where other software engineers made

changes.

. Contribute to successful launch of model year '01 through '12 vehicles

from multiple OEM's.

1996 - 1998: Chrysler Engineering, Auburn Hills, MI

Controls Software Contract Engineer - Chrysler's electronic transmission

controller (ETC)

. Review the existing control algorithm design specifications and assembly

language software.

. Convert the control software and data structures from Motorola 68HC16

assembly language to 'C' to allow switch to newer, faster microprocessor

systems as they became available.

. Compare the original assembly code to the C compiled assembly.

. Tested both assembly and C software versions on bench

1988 - 1996: EDS, various locations in southeast, MI

Engineering Systems Engineer - UNIX systems.

. Completed company training program and held various positions at this

large computer services company.

. Completed EDS Engineering Systems Development Program, an intensive 10-

week training course that included MVS PLl1 and UNIX C programming.

. Wrote UNIX scripts for approximately 2 years.

. Managed UNIX computer network at customer site for several engineers for

approximately three years.

. During final two years, processed customer software trouble reports for a

vehicle power train control module (PCM) and initiated PCM software

modification requests and software requirements changes.

. Helped manage a fleet of engineering test vehicles for the group by

updating the PCM software and running quick basic function tests in the

vehicles.
