Objective:

Seeking a position developing synthetic environments and models for computer generated imagery

Experience:

Senior DSP Software Engineer Contractor

NuVasive Inc., Medical Devices, San Diego CA, Mar 07-Sep 07

Successfully designed and implemented several DSP algorithms to improve overall system performance of NeuroVision - a spinal-cord nerve monitoring system used to monitor spinal-cord integrity during spine surgeries. The algorithms addressed several serious issues with the system resulting in significant reduction in false-alarm rates. Algorithms were developed in Matlab, and then implemented in C into their real-time PC-based system.

Senior DSP Software Engineer

Eaton Vorad Technologies, San Diego, CA, 1996-2004

  • Real-time, embedded software engineering tasks in support of an automotive collision warning and cruise control radar system.
  • Reformulated, optimized, and implemented multi-target tracker currently in use by production units
  • Successfully developed system and software requirements per customer´s requests, and implemented changes customizing signal processing software, resulting in >$1M worth of sales
  • Directed engineering effort to redesign Blind-Spot Radar System that resulted in successful product launch. Responsible for overall system performance, test design, on-road testing, data collection and analysis, signal processing modeling and algorithm development.
  • Led software engineering effort to implement standardized methodologies to improve the overall software process and lifecycle. This included developing software requirements and traceability matrices.
  • Developed and maintained off-line Matlab simulation tools to post-process real-time collected raw time-domain data. Tools were used for verifying embedded implementation, as well as algorithm development and optimization.

Member of the Research Staff

Arete Engineering Technologies Corporation, San Diego, CA, 1993-1996

  • Software development, data analysis, and algorithm development and implementation to support underwater acoustics technologies.
  • Developed and installed on-site user-friendly software package to perform nearfield, broadband, acoustic holographic imaging using remote bistatic measurements.
  • Implemented algorithms for maximizing array gains using nested hydrrophone arrays.
  • Performed analysis and data reduction for numerous at-sea broadband acoustic tests.

Engineering Specialist

Hughes Missile Systems Company, 1984-1993

  • Computer modeling, testing, and data analysis in support of low-observable technologies.
  • Lead analyst/programmer in the Radar Cross Section Group.
  • Designed RCS measurement tests and performed data analysis to address key issues of low observable technology.
  • Optimized analysis throughput by integrating user-interfaces and CAD packages as pre- and post-processors for computer simulations.
  • Performed as Chief Investigator for multi-year Internal Research and Development project to characterize Biostatic Radar Cross Sections of various vehicles.
