Experience

SOFTWARE DEVELOPER, ADVANTIX SYSTEMS; SUNRISE, FL JULY 2014 - PRESENT

• Successfully developed and delivered a two-way communication platform for our equipment that helps reduce the cost

of maintenance and support by 80% as well as the engineering effort to improve the performance of the equipment.

• The platform involved the design, implementation and maintenance of a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data

Acquisition) system with HMI (Human Machine Interface) to enable the support department to remote troubleshoot

equipment in the field and help the engineering and research departments to improve and optimize equipment

performance:

• Configure the controllers and modems for secure network communication; Machine to Machine (M2M)

• Optimize OPC server for efficient communication using specialized software, KEPServerEX.

• Design and manage the relational database associated to this platform

• Design the user interface and functionality

• Enable the automatic generation and e-mailing of reports of the system’s performance

• Develop algorithms to check for equipment performance

• Design and develop a suite of mobile applications using Xcode 6.0 and Swift programming language that enable

technicians to perform maintenance on equipment in the field more accurately and efficiently.

RESEARCH ASSISTANT, MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY; CAMBRIDGE, MA 2012-2014

• Developed and enhanced a global chemical transport model using FORTRAN code, which will be applied as part of the

FAA project to develop policy to mitigate aircraft emissions’ impact on human health and the environment.

• Improved the code’s capability to produce more accurate sensitivity of outputs with respect to input variables with a

higher degree of confidence by implementing the complex-step method.

• Used to validate the adjoint code of the global chemical transport model and generate higher order sensitivities.
