*******@*****.***

For more than 35 years I've disciplined computer product development, test and manufacturing.

As a quick learner I update my technical and people skills constantly. My mentoring style excels

in on-site, face to face deployment and support. I am a skilled customer and marketing

technology translator.

The focus of my career has me integrating hardware/software into vertical scientific and

commercial OEM markets. As markets and technology evolves I'm pleased supporting and

maintaining legacy products while formulating the architectural updates (SW and HW) needed to

support the best forward looking re-implementation of products for the current marketplace.

My career started in real-time embedded Single Board Computer (Firmware) product

development. I received a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago specializing in

computer controlled art and video installations. I developed Target Resident Languages (TRL’s)

for HW Vendors, including working on the Open Boot Standards leading to EUFI. I was taught

Real Time Unix andC++ at Bell Labs Indian Hill campus. With theses skills I've architect-ed,

programmed, manufactured and tested clinical laboratory and scientific test instruments

I've participated in development, documentation, and integration of n-tier client server systems -

commercial, business and government. I have contract HW/SW delivery experience, and am

currently working with my hardware partner M. Simon of Space-Time Productions producing

more TRL’s for Arm micro-controllers, and developing QT Framework Fluency.

I believe it is in our mutual interest to utilize my experience and dedication in your team. I look

forward to hearing from you regarding my matches to your needs.

7/99 –5/01 Manufacturing and Test Engineer 1

208-***-**** Bob Sadler

Shipped 3,000 Extreme Networks’ switches a week as primary Manufacturing and Test Engineer

1. Setup lines, wrote tests, produced on-line steps, trained operators and managed production

staff, all the while analyzing and upgrading tests. Customer issues resolved included post silicon

validation of BGA (SERDES) and wave solder yield issues, utilizing X-ray (2-3/D),

HALT/HASS, HP 3070 ICT & JTAG/TAP. Analyzed test and protocol/inter-op failures with Lab

View and VXI based protocol analyzers and traffic generators. Used NT and Linux hosted tools

(TCL/VB/Java/jscript/Sockets/Streams) targeting customers embedded HW/VxWorks RTOS to

develop and run tests. Provided custom device reprogramming, test network and customer

gateway VPN. I provided value added testing and maintained ISO/QS/QA certificate compliance.

I worked with customer HW and SW engineers to implement advanced DFM/DFT. Traveled

extensively to facilitate new product kick-offs, and present manufacturing, test and production

line setup and capability. Provided metrics and improvements to management and customers.

Assisted in Nokia and 3COM production.

Access Express Ltd. My entrepreneurial concern

7-97 –3/99 USB 1.1 product development and sales.

I partnered with a retired naval engineer to develop, market and sell USB peripherals we

manufactured for automation and process control markets, competing with

Honeywell/GPIB/Labworks/VXI instrumentation for small laboratory and shop placement.

Spur Products Inc.

11/96 –5/97 Systems Engineer

208-***-**** Jim McMillan

I helped develop their Enterprise Print Server product. Administered development environment

and integrated NT services for Netware\Unix\Windows and administered test environments,

including Mainframe Bus & Tag and APPC token ring routing emulation. Developed 2-minute

installation CD (prior to Ghost) and utilized hardware profiles to install different hardware

configurations from single source release code. I coded several device drivers for mainframe

printers and wrote end user utilities. I produced documentation for installation, administration

and field service.

data-CACHE, Hitachi Boise Technical Center –Project moved to Japan

3/92 –7-96 Sr. Programmer

Bob Hartmann PhD - Founded on his PhD thesis. Managers Joel Just, Steve Holland.

I helped design, manufacture and test mainframe reliability class HW and OO (C++) SW for

Massively Parallel SQL DB, with embedded NT front end. 120-node 5 terabyte EIS system

shipped, each node a shared nothing PowerPC SBC with Transputer based toroidal mesh

interconnect. I worked with SR Hardware engineers to bring-up and debug prototypes, software

engineers using vender BSP’s to provide VME hosted prototypes. I wrote the bi-endian boot

debug monitor, used Corelis JTAG to network images to prototypes as loaders and defined test

points for HW bring up. Programmed 24x7 front panel hot swap I/O, SCSI mult-LUN drivers

RAID/DLT tape libraries, and ESCON to IP protocol mesh. I coded BCP and other SQL library

utilities from scratch. Also prototyped SHARC, TI DSP with RACEWAY and early FIBRE

channel attached I/O boards to support our toroidal mesh architecture, as well as Pentium, MIPS

and ARM as main processors. I was in charge of evaluation of RTOS for the system and almost

chose QNX for it's smaller footprint and built in networking but their lack of streams support (at

the time) would have hindered my development of IBM ESCON protocol stacks. There were 2

other issues with QNX at the time, PowerPC and MMU support. (I have used QNX in some

small HVAC controller contracts). I chose to assist VxWorks in completing their port to the

PowerPC for the newest generations MMU to implement the data-CACHE system..
