Executive Summary

I am a Software Systems Analyst, Software Engineer with Senior and Principal level experience currently looking for a direct position on embedded real-time and other development projects within the Syracuse NY area. Open to relocation elsewhere in upstate NY such as Buffalo, Rochester... I would appreciate your consideration for current and future openings in your organization.

I have extensive experience in the analysis, design, documentation, implementation, testing and troubleshooting of complex systems, including real-time embedded firmware, embedded real-time data collection and analysis systems, micro, mini and main frame computer systems applications, typically using C/C++ and assembly language, ADA or FORTRAN. I can provide the complete lifecycle support of software development to your project and teams, with exceptional skills such as:

• Rapid analysis and understanding of requirements leading to system level and detailed design documentation. I have joined projects late in the design stage to solve “show stopper” complex design and implementation problems, often leading to a much simpler solution.

• Resolved complex system problems using debuggers, in-circuit emulators (ICE), logic analyzers and protocol analyzers. Team debugging and troubleshooting leader. Found problems on several projects that had plagued other engineers for over a year.

• Development of projects from start to finish, including learning a new RTOS, high-level and assembly languages, debugger, and application requirements.
• Development of time and cost saving utilities for team and company use, such as:

• ○    Embedded system development download to in‑circuit‑emulator speed improvements replacing serial RS232 downloads, including   

•     ○    90 minutes plus serial to under 10 minutes using magnetic tape, and,
  

•      ○    over 2 minutes serial to under 20 seconds using Ethernet.

• ○    DOD specified software documentation listings utility to replace labor-intensive cut & paste. Saved over 2000 hours tech pub labor in first two months, time that was not available and would have resulted in late delivery, allowing them to concentrate on other tasks!

• ○    Updated install utility that queried existing system information for previous install answers to avoid customer entry of incorrect answers.
  

• ○    Automated utilities for backups, data verification, and other repetitive procedures.

• ○    "Utility Man"
• Mentoring and training of engineers, technicians, interns, and recent graduates.
