Project 1

• I tested a gesture control glove for the Robotics Collaborative Technology Alliance program
• Tasks:
• Submitted comments for improvements for unclear or outdated instructions in user manual
• Communicated with developer to resolve bugs found during testing
• Designed and implemented a well-documented test procedure and analyzed the results
• I completed the testing and submitted a document thoroughly summarizing the results

Project 2

• I was assigned to debug code for a project that came back for phase two of development
• Tasks:
• Wrote unit and functional tests
• Utilized isolated testbed and simulation software to identify causation of errors
• Traced through and modified legacy code to locate and fix bugs
• All the bugs were resolved by the deadline, and code documentation was improved

• I was assigned to work independently on a new project with a tight deadline. I kept the project moving forward when it was previously at a standstill.
• Tasks:
• Evaluated new computer vision technology for improved object identification
• Developed software in embedded C++ for dead-reckoning and ultra-wideband localization
• Evaluated new GPS devices for improved localization accuracy
• Developed software for integration of above enhancements to robotic systems
• Tracked development using the Perforce revision control tool
• Documented progress, design decisions, and build/code use instructions on internal company Wiki pages
• The project was completed in time for the client demonstration

• There was an electrical failure in the power electronics controls for a linear induction motor during testing.
• I was tasked with performing circuit analysis for failure modes and potential system losses.
• I was able to identify the source of the failure so we could replace it with a safer component.
• The facility had no Wi-Fi capabilities.
• I was tasked to evaluate ideas for a secure intranet Wi-Fi network for the facility.
• I was able to come up with a low-cost solution that was secure enough for government regulations.
• I was asked to do preliminary Simulink modeling of induction motors running in series for an oil pumping system.
• I completed electrical models in a timely fashion and presented them to my supervisor.

• The company purchased new computers for the engineering staff.
• I performed the hardware benchmarks on the new computers and installed all software.
• I developed an Oracle Apex applications using SQL/PL-SQL to keep track of all hardware benchmarking in the future.
• The system for locating employee desks the complex was inefficient and time-consuming.
• I developed new cube/office assignment system for the facility as well as an application for finding and updating employee locations using Oracle Apex and SQL/PL-SQL.
• The new system allowed for faster updates of employee locations to improve productivity.
