Nike Inc

Technical Project Manager/Agile Coach September 2015-Dec 2015

Scrum Master/Technical Project Manager on two projects using Agile Scrum: One project is integrating DreamWorks Animation's cloud-based (SaaS) work flow of 2d/3d imagery to Nike's systems improving product time to market. The second project is a big data initiative to digitize and merge 7000 cubic feet of text documents with existing data to enable text analytics.

Influenced senior leadership to follow a Minimal Viable Product approach to innovative product development rather than “hitting for the fence” on the first try approach.

Established project scope from vision statement, project plan, program milestones and success criteria to enable stakeholders to see business value before significant funding is needed.

Established Agile ceremony cadence and ground rules for DreamWorks program.

Intel Corporation

Senior Product Development Engineer 2013-2015

Product Owner/Manager responsible for optimizing manufacturing for high ASP components. In a SAFe environment, held multifaceted project manager and quality manager roles driving tool standardization for a cross-platform, multi-geography system built to replace location-specific tools. Coordinated four-person engineering team for acceptance testing using Robot framework.

Served as customer advocate for business-based tool standardization of power/frequency class-test program parameter inputs across multiple geographies; documented and certified unit and integration/regression testing.

Managed testing, scope and release schedule across geographies.

Standardized test program parameter management business process, enabling consolidation of two test program parameter tools into centralized system; drove value stream mapping for class test parameter management, wrote stories, set sprint goals, and made interrupt decisions based on velocity and business value.

Drove Lean-based continuous deployment of unified power/speed binning test module into class-test program requiring module off-line, on-tester validation and verification of full test program module results.

Automated data analysis to quickly pinpoint quality deficiencies in CPU test results using SAS/JMP.

Leveraged correlated synthesis and Monte Carlo analysis to forecast CPU performance.

Team Lead, Integrated Setpoint & Guardband Manager 2007-2013

Headed four-person team comprised of engineers and one technician as product owner for delivery of CPU voltage scaling, temperature scaling, and defect mitigation in support of multiple product lines. Managed additional matrixed engineers.

Drove lean software development as Scrum Master for IO test program team.

Reduced testing while maintaining quality levels by optimizing high ASP skews across multiple product lines; characterized CPU power and frequency using Excel/JMP scripting to feed into Monte Carlo tools.

Built mathematical models to allow lifetime simulations to predict end-of-life defect failure rates in order to be able to meet defect rate goals. Designed experiments to validate models.

Managed responses to failures seen in customer systems in order to determine Intel’s mitigation plan.

Senior Quality & Reliability Engineer 2001-2007

Led quality and reliability qualification for CPUs: including delivery of pre-silicon feasibility reports, to ensure attainment of product quality goals. Oversaw matrix teams of up to six engineers.

Characterized silicon parametric parameters and correlations to verify match to existing performance models, as well as consulted factory on statistical process control limits.

Built mathematical models to forecast beginning-of-life/end-of-life component behavior in order to prove compliance to Intel quality and reliability specifications.

Led definition, implementation, and validation of modeling tools as product owner to comprehend UX based on empirically determined parameter distribution; facilitated manual acceptance and user testing.

Designed data collection experiments to enable mathematical modeling of observed component behavior. Used SQL to pull high volume manufacturing data to correlate models.

Modeled maximum/minimum voltage and soft error rate using Monte Carlo tools.

Championed cross geography standardization of meeting structures during early development phases in order to ensure clear communication and unified agenda.
