Successfully led product development efforts across cross-functional teams to meet aggressive timelines.

Significant experience in all aspects of product development including technology research and development, creation and evaluation of system concepts, requirements development and management, system modeling and simulation, system architecture, hardware and software integration, and technical risks management.

Strong problem-solving, critical thinking, interpersonal, decision making and multi-tasking skills EXPERIENCE

Flex Irving, Texas

Systems Architect Senior Staff Engineer 2017 – Now Lead the development of products from concept to market launch. Responsible for managing safety & technical risks, requirements, interfaces, and developing the system architecture.

Led a multidisciplinary team on an aggressive schedule to design & develop a high volume (millions of units per year) medical device with wireless connectivity to cloud services.

Co-developed various medical devices (Class I, II, III): wearable devices, portable devices, hospital equipment, diagnostic equipment, surgical equipment, single-use devices and combination devices.

Developed several control systems (motion & thermal) using MATLAB/Simulink and/or STM32CubeIDE.

Received an internal award, along with my teammates, for having the Highest Customer Satisfaction rating.

Developed a power management algorithm for a life sustaining device that integrates sensors, motor, software, micro controllers, display, radio frequency identification (RFID) transceivers, radio frequency antenna and hydraulics.

Trained all design engineers, verification engineers, quality personnel, project managers and functional managers on how to write good requirements.

AlgerGrantley Taunton, Massachusetts

Principal Engineer 2014 - 2015

Collaborated with a customer, in the energy sector, to develop requirements and to select a solution that has been very successful.

Candela, Wayland, Massachusetts.

Principal Systems Engineer, 2010 - 2013

Co-managed efforts to design and develop medical devices for aesthetic applications. Supported upgrades to existing machines. Defined and developed: product requirements, system specifications, module specifications, design specifications, system architecture, concepts, verification and validation plans, traceability reports, test reports, schedules and resource plan. Formulated and evaluated concepts.

Persuaded the product development team to adopt a different method of eliciting technical risks, thus increasing the number of risks identified and mitigated early.

Developed and documented the architecture of several new products. Each product integrates high power lasers, GUI, CPLD, High Voltage Power Supply, sophisticated optics, custom software, real-time OS, sensors, optic fiber cables, pumps, heaters, valves, heat exchanger, DACs and microcontrollers.

Managed a multidisciplinary team, most of whom belonged to other departments or were committed to other projects, to successfully complete all verification tasks on time.

Architected a modular platform, which resulted in the release of an unprecedented number of high quality products within a span of 30 months.

Co-developed a product for which Candela won “Favorite Laser and Light Manufacturer” in American Spa Magazine’s Professional’s Choice Awards 2013. OLAWALE AKINWALE

Senior Product Development Engineer, 2005 - 2010

Designed and developed medical devices. Supported upgrades to existing machines. Defined and developed: hazard analysis, essential requirements checklists, design specifications, test specifications, product labeling, drawings, verification and validation plans, test reports and other product documentation.

Developed innovative solutions to address key design issues that threatened to halt the development of a new product. As a result, this device has a 510(k) clearance from the FDA.

Served as the technical leader of a multi-national/multi-site team that redesigned 80+ complex PCBAs for several Haemonetics devices. Each device integrates pumps, motors, valves, compressors, sensors, microcontrollers, memories, ADCs, optical devices, ultrasonic devices, FPGAs, Wi-Fi module, pneumatics, disposable sets, custom software and real-time OS.

Co-developed the design that reduced plasma collection time by ~50%, thus ensuring Haemonetics’ leadership in the industry.

Provided expert guidance for resolving several EMC/EMI and Electrical Safety issues.

Received an award, in FY10, for “leadership and outstanding contribution” to a project that extended lifecycle, improved yield and significantly reduced manufacturing cost for several devices.

Applied Micro Circuits Corporation, Andover, Massachusetts. Senior Hardware Engineer, 2000 - 2004

Designed and developed FPGAs and test / evaluation platforms for Framers, Mappers, Physical Layer Devices and Switch Fabrics.

Designed high-density, high-speed logic on time while taking Digital Processor Design course and learning Verilog.

Pioneered a “bug free” development of a high density, high-speed (10GHz) complex PCB integrating ASICs, FPGAs, SERDES, analog PLLs, memories, 32-bit microprocessors, optical devices and software, resulting in cost savings of board rework.

Reduced post layout validation time by one week while maintaining accuracy through adapting signal integrity and power integrity analysis tool to the design flow. Analog Devices Inc., Wilmington, Massachusetts.

System Engineering Intern, 1999 - 1999

Designed and developed software programs.

Increased productivity of teammates making power measurements on GSM chipsets, by learning LabVIEW and then designing a 16-channel virtual oscilloscope.

Pioneered the automation of power measurement by writing software drivers for a GSM test equipment and a power supply unit.

BAATS Clinical Engineering, Nig., Ltd., Ibadan, Nigeria. Hardware Engineer, 1995 - 1998

Designed and developed medical devices and test platforms.

Designed, simulated, verified and documented several analog design sub-blocks such as high voltage converters, amplifiers, filters and temperature control circuits.

Recognized for outstanding performance.
