EXPERIENCE

X-FAB, Semiconductor Company, Lubbock, TX, summer 2010, Internship

I carried out a successful Wind Resource Assessment project to study and estimate wind profile over a long period of time. Some of my responsibilities were:

• Statistical data analysis using statistical software like Excel and JMP 8

• Software development to manipulate up to ten years of Meteorological data that have been recorded at every five second interval at reference sites. The major tools and technologies I used were: the .NET platform, VS2008 environment, C# language and MS SQL Server

• Estimation of the long term wind distribution of the site under consideration

TECHNICAL SKILLS

Statistical Packages: Excel, SAS 9, JMP 8

Simulation Tools: Cadence, Matlab

Programming Languages/Scripts: very comfortable with C#, Java, C

Databases: SQL server 2005/2008 R2, intermediate level Oracle 9i, MySql

IDEs: very comfortable with Eclipse, Netbeans, VS2005/2008/2010, Code Composer Studio v3.1

Hardware Board: TMS320C6713 DSK board

IT CERTIFICATIONS

CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) CCNA1, CCNA2, and CCNA3, Cisco regional networking academy at Addis Ababa University, January, 2006 – December, 2006

MAJOR ACADEMIC POJECTS

Analog IC Design Project:

Operational Amplifier Design: Design and layout of a self-biased operational amplifier using AMI06 CMOS process with the objective of meeting a predefined specification.

Embedded Systems:

TMS320C6713 DSK: written different programs (audio music generation, reverberation effect simulation, DTMF detection) for the TMS320C6713 DSP board using Code Composer Studio (CCS) IDE

Telecommunication Networks Project

µ-law Compression: µ-law coding and decoding of voice signals as an implementation of non-linear quantization to reduce data rates in telecommunication networks. The simulation was done in Matlab and VS2008.

COMMUNITY CERVICE

Lubbock State School, voluntary service, summer 2009
