April, 2014 to July 2015 Principle Software Engineer Technical Lead Camber Corporation, Bloomington IN

Focused on the war fighter in the Special Operations Community (SOF).  Brought in as a lead/Principle to focus on Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (ISR) detail - including a JAVA based Man Portable Surveillance System (MPSS), Ground Based Observation Surveillance System (GBOSS) and currently Information Assurance within IT specializing in collaborating with Camber, Academia and Government interests - supporting a Center of Excellence (COE).  Additional responsibilities include oversight/management of a sub-contracting Software House to include agile-scrum planning meetings, CM redefinition, platform support for C/C++/Java languages on a Linux OS, networking duties to reestablish a closed intranet between devices. As a Platform specialist assisted in the configuration and deployment of ACAS and Scap.  Provided several presentation's to the team members on configurations. Provided Proposal development to increase potential business for the company.  Developed several tactical  tools to solve ambiguities based on reverse engineering tactics.  Worked very close with NSWC/Crane to promote DISA standards for IA compliance.

 

 

 

January 2013 - July 2013 Principle Software Engineer Tandel Systems, Clearwater, FL

Contract:

Responsibilities included several domains, from Microsoft VS 8-12, developing a piped service oriented multi-threaded application that recorded pressure variances for aircraft.  This data would have been presented to the operating technician and emailed results sent to listed recipients.  This was a ground based test platform (non-in flight) but supported the DO-178B standard. Firmly engaged in agile development and peer-review compliance for D0-178B and ARINC -429 BUS standards.  ISO-2010 compliance and complimented my EVMS CMMI level 5 experience.

This involved comprehensive team contribution for GE-Aviation as well as Boeing; Additionally worked with a Long Term Evolution (LTE) chip manufacturer to provide Global Position, tower hops (GPS) for proprietary information database.  Also conducted code reviews for a refueling airborne tankers control system utilizing FPGA resources.
