EXPERIENCE

Thales Rail Signalling Solutions

**** - *******

Toronto, Canada

Safety and Reliability Engineer

Electronics and electrical safety case development for metro rail

train signalling systems. A computer based system controls trains to

increase system throughput and safety.

Lead failure mode, effects and criticality analysis (FMECA) to

improve the safety and reliability of printed circuit boards.

Analyzed circuit boards one electronic component at a time or in

functional groups of components.

Systems level FMECA to show safety and reliability of the entire

train's electronics system. The goal of this analysis is to show

that the system is safe and reliable.

Maintainability work showing reliability centered maintenance (RCM)

and demonstration reports. These reports showed that customer

requirements were met during train systems demonstrations.

Fault tree analysis (FTA) and Markov analysis to describe more

complicated failure scenarios involving multiple failures.

Safety and or maintainability documents were created for New York

City Transit, Walt Disney World monorail, Beijing metro and others.

Availability calculated to show train system uptime vs. downtime.

Talks given on statistics, use of software to increase efficiency

and models.

Digital Electronics Hardware Designer

. Designed and tested electronic printed circuit board assemblies and

microchips (FPGA).

. Managed power supply, thermal design, test and manufacturing teams.

. Part of team developing a new Internet services router for

telecommunications service providers.

. Schematic capture of printed circuit board which included high speed

busses, network processors and a multi-core microprocessor.

. Lab work to verify that the design met requirements

. Simulation of printed circuit board and FPGA.

. Used VHDL language to design CPLD and FPGA type microchips. Simulation

tools were used to verify the designs.

Summers Internships 1996 - 1999

Ottawa, Canada

Four internships at this telecommunication electronics developer

provided experience in designing products for the telecommunications

market.

1999: FPGA design and PCB verification including a verification

document for a microwave frequency modem.

1998: Analog design and verification with a university professor

working to ensure proper operation and manufacture of an ADSL

communication modem.

1997: Worked to build an electronics lab for a hardware development

team designing ADSL modems. Ordered and set up equipment. Some

schematics capture completed

1996: Introduction to electronics engineering through schematics

entry for a fiber optics telecommunications switch. Work included

cost analysis for multiple PCB assemblies.
