OBJECTIVE
Challenging opportunity as a senior level real-time embedded software engineer or manager.
EDUCATION
1992 - M.S. in Computer Science, The Johns Hopkins University – 3.5 GPA
1983 - B.S. in Computer Science, The State University of NY at Stony Brook – 3.3 GPA
EXPERIENCE
7/2010 – present: Coca-Cola Company (via Fujitsu America), Atlanta, GA
Lead Software Engineer – Lead teams domestically and internationally that develop software and hardware for Coca-Cola’s Freestyle dispensers. Responsible for the cost, quality and schedule for assigned projects. Involved in preparing statement of work, pricing, resources and schedule for new and proposed projects in accordance with existing contract terms and conditions.
The Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser is next generation fountain dispenser with an interactive touch screen display that dispenses over 100+ different flavors of soda. RFiD was integrated and used to keep track of the syrup cartridges installed in the dispenser.
All code was written in C/C++ and using MS Platform Builder. The OS was Windows CE 5.0 and 6.0 using a Marvell processor and Fujitsu GPU.
7/2008 – 7/2010: Universal Avionics, Duluth, GA
Senior Software Engineer – Responsible for the design and development of new features for cockpit primary flight displays. Code, testing and documentation were performed to FAA DO-178B standards.
Perforce was used for configuration management. The source code was written in C/C++ and was compiled using a GNU compiler.

Senior Staff Engineer - Responsible for the design, test and validation of an OpenGL safety critical library used to create avionic displays on FAA/Military aircrafts. Responsibilities also include the configuration management of software using Rational Clearcase. The source code is written in C++ and Ada and is compiled using Visual Studio 6.0 for windows debugging and VxWorks for delivery/test/integration. The code is tested using Rational Test Real Time (RTRT) to obtain the necessary code coverage required for FAA certification. The graphics card uses 3D Graphics P3, P4 and P9 chips.
Responsibilities also include the software support for legacy systems that require change. Legacy systems used Rational Apex for development and configuration management.
9/2000 - 2/2006: Panasonic Mobile Communications, Suwanee, GA
1/2004 - 2/2006 Software/Project Manager:
I managed internal Panasonic teams and outside vendors both domestically and internationally that developed software applications for Panasonic’s Symbian GSM phones. I was involved in the requests for technical proposals, product evaluation, selection, cost negotiations and incremental and final deliverables. This effort also included the testing of software to ensure that it behaved correctly with no side effects to any of the phones existing functionality.
Applications/Programs that I successfully managed and were delivered and incorporated into Panasonic phones include: voice recognition in several languages, optical character recognition, various camera applications, and java and c++ games.
My responsibilities also included support for our factory and distribution channels since phones were loaded with custom builds by the factory to support specific vendors. It was my responsibility to make sure that each customer received the voice recognition languages to support their clients and contained the applications that were negotiated.
9/2000 -12/2003 Senior Staff Engineer - Responsible for the design, development and hardware/software integration of the power management scheme (sleep mode) that was used to extend the battery life for out cell phones. The battery life needed to be extended to meet the negotiated time duration for delivery to AT&T for USA sales. My software changes resulted in a battery life that exceeded the negotiated values.

1991 - 1994 Technical Lead Software Engineer
Technical lead for the digital redesign of the Air Force's precision guided "Smart Bomb". Responsible for 6-8 junior level software engineers, project schedule, software deliverables, production support and acceptance testing. This product went the full life cycle, was on time and is still used by the Air Force.
1994 – 2000 R&D Senior Software Engineer
Responsible for design, integration and field support of IR algorithms that included target tracking, sensor calibration and user interfaces. Major accomplishment of the R&D group was the Navy's Light Weight Exo Atmospheric IR interceptor. It was successfully tested during 2 flight tests.
1983 – 1990: Westinghouse Electric Corp., Baltimore, MD
1988 - 1990 Senior Software Engineer - Responsible for the video display and video equalization of an IR display
1985 - 1988 Senior Software Engineer on the EW system for Northrop’s Advanced Tactical Fighter. Work resulted in a patent disclosure for a real-time software method of identifying RF radar signals.
1983 - 1985 Software Engineer: Responsible for the design, development and integration of assembly code to perform the Antenna Motor Control, the Closed Loop Gain and Frequency Calibration for a radar jammer.
PATENTS & AWARDS
1988 - Patent disclosure for a real-time software algorithm of identifying RF pulse signals (radar) for Northrop's Advanced Tactical Fighter.
1993 - Rockwell International's CEO Team Award for work on a multi divisional project for intercepting missiles before they enter the atmosphere.
1984, 1985 - Two Westinghouse Creative Software Awards for work on real-time embedded control systems.
