Objective:
To be employed as a Senior Electronic Engineer, where my education,
experience, attention to detail, and strict work ethic can be effectively
utilized to meet complex and demanding challenges, resulting in complete
customer satisfaction.
Education:
M.S.E.E. from Drexel University B.S.E.E. Bucknell University
Professional Engineering License PA '85 NJ '97 NY >96
Professional Experience:
Contract Manufacturing Firm
Senior Application Engineer 2003-to present
RF Design. Designed limiter and detector for row receiver on AN/FPS-117
Radar. The design included.
selection of components, board design and layout, fabrication and
specification of test parameters. I supervised the fabrication of the
units and verified test documentation.
RF design. Designed oscillator for a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for
Military Radar. This design included selection of components, circuit
board layout, supervision of fabrication and the testing.
Tested Magnetic Intrusion Detector for US Marines for ship or submarine
detection.
2001-2002 Contract Positions
Electronic Toll Collection & Railroad Signal Systems
Supported design, construction and test of electronic toll collection
system on Delaware highways. Provided engineering support for
specification and installation of SEPTA 100 Hz. Signalling System.
Electronic Measurements Inc., Neptune N.J. Electrical Engineer
1998 to 2000
Designed, developed, and tested an interface system to provide RS-232
and GPIB inputs/outputs to a 1 kilowatt power supply for industrial use.
The interface board included analog and digital designs to control the
output of the power supply.
Designed custom power supplies to meet customer specifications and
support production in 1 to 5 kilowatt range power supplies.
Provided engineering support to solve problems in test on the production
floor.
Communication Electronics Command Directorate (CECOM), Fort Monmouth, N.J.
Electrical Engineer
1994 to 1997
Designed, supervised, and coordinated fabrication of both single and dual
dipole omnidirectional antennas from conception to test. Conducted field
trials which created communication systems enabling mobile units to
communicate with a centralized base station. Filed three joint patent
disclosures based on the concepts and design for these systems. The single
dipole antennae (developed for the Wireless Network Access Radio System)
were designed to radiate radio frequency signals with uniform strength
along the horizon in the UHF

band. The dual dipole antenna system was developed for the Surrogate
Digital Radio Program, as an evolutionary outgrowth of the single dipole
system. It utilized a different frequency within the UHF band and its
design allowed for a flattening of the radiation pattern and increased
field strength along the horizon.
Participated in installation and test of a new, high data rate, SONET
radio (OC3C = 155 Megabits/sec) within a system designed for 2 way
digital data exchange.
R.F. Products, Inc. Camden, N.J. Electrical Engineer
1992 to 1993
Designed the interface between a radio and a hopping VHF filter from
conception to test. The system converts serial frequency data from the
radio into a parallel format which is used to drive IGBT switches. The
system design utilized high voltage and high current switches controlled
by a programmable gate array and EEPROMS.
RCA (GE Aerospace Div.), Moorestown, N.J. Electrical Engineer
1982 to 1992
Designed a digital system that takes digital data from a gyroscope and
transmits it to four different users, an alphanumeric display system for
shipboard use, a general purpose serial input/output interface for a
shipboard radar system which allowed a computer bus to communicate with a
serial device, a chassis to take analog video data from an RF receiver
and process it for use by a computer, and a chassis to repeat and amplify
video data for use in optical target tracking.
Kulicke and Soffa, Horsham, Pa. Electrical Engineer
1979 to 1982
Designed from conception to test a pulsed high voltage power supply for
Electronic Flame Off (EFO) on a wire bonding machine used in the
production of semiconductors and a regulated high current power supply
using SCR's used in the production of integrated circuits. The
responsibilities for both of these projects included developing the
concepts, supervising construction, testing, and supervising the printed
circuit layout.
Developed test parameters and procedures for the QC department for
transistor burn in to reduce infant mortality and increase reliability.
Investigated, analyzed, and corrected an oscillation problem in a power
amplifier used with servo motors on wire bonding machines.
Developed new concepts for the heatsinking of power amplifiers on die
bonding machines to prevent failures due to thermal runaway of
transistors.
Patents: In the year 2000: 6,014,112 and 6,037,905 Antenna
Computer Experience:
Knowledge of multiple computer languages, including APL, BASIC, COBOL,
FORTRAN and Assembly Language. Experience in computer programming.
electrical engineering theory on Computer Aided Design.
Developed the software for the gyroscope project at RCA, which required
the implementation of Assembly Language programs to control the system
testing utilizing a computer driven test set.
Professional Affiliations: Senior member of the Society of Logistics
Engineers, IEEE
Security Clearance: Top Secret, DoD
