Experience

2014/07 – CURRENT PRODUCTION RUNTIME ENGINEER, SIEMENS RESEARCH CORPORATION, PRINCETON, NJ

Developing flame sensor detection program from LabVIEW to C++ (1000+ lines) using Visual Studio,

PC-lint, and GForge version control

Using Fourier Transform algorithm, cross-correlation algorithm and cross-covariance algorithm for

signal processing and data acquisition

Implementing signal processing of analog to digital converting and data acquisition of flame sensors

using Fourier Transform and Cross-Correlation algorithm

Achieving highly accurate flame sensor detection with less than 0.00001% false alarm rate

2013/08 – 2014/05 AUTO BREAKING C-LANGUAGE PROGRAMMER, PURDUE UNIVERSITY, INDIANAPOLIS, IN

Designed and built PCBs to automatically shut down power source when mannequin detected car

crash or free fall from the hanger. Prevent motor from braking hence avoid high replacement cost

($250 per motor)

Installed and programmed an additional 3D acceleration sensor to detect free fall of mannequin

and can car crash using C-language in MPLAB X IDE with Pickit 3 debugger

Achieved 100% success rate of cutting down power during the tests

2013/09 – 2014/05 IMAGE ANALYSIS RESEARCHER, PURDUE UNIVERSITY, INDIANAPOLIS, IN

Conducted research on 3D image segmentation using Expectation -Maximization and Maximization

of the Posterior Marginal

Analyzed 200+ of Tomographic Ultrasound image cases using EM/MPM algorithm

Improved window level and gray scale with 38% more accurate percent density using C-language

on Visual Studio

2014/01 – 2014/05 PYTHON PROGRAMMER & UI DESIGNER, PURDUE UNIVERSITY, INDIANAPOLIS, IN

Performed interactive math application using Python (350+ lines) and Pygame library in PyCharm

environment with Object Oriented concept and Agile approaching process

Designed and drew the application UI using Photoshop

2014/01 – 2014/05 UI DESIGNER & PROGRAMMER, PURDUE UNIVERSITY, INDIANAPOLIS, IN

Implemented the popular Flappy Bird iOS game using a PIC18F4515 microcontroller, hall effect

sensor, and servo motors on a circuit board

Performed coding a microcontroller in C-Language under mikroC environment

Designed and built the Flappy Bird in Box using recycle materials, and achieved the eco -friendly

purpose

2013/08 – 2013/12 WEB SERVER ENGINEER, PURDUE UNIVERSITY, INDIANAPOLIS, IN

Developed a web server of message board application in Python and Repy system

Implemented an error message handling algorithm and improve the efficiency of the web server

with 10% less code in the whole project

Performed status codes, debugging, black box and white box testing in Python and Repy system

Conducted white-box and black-box testing to ensure that the web server and message board are

working as intended

Performed load test and stress test to determine the robustness of the web server
