WORK EXPERIENCE:

System Engineer

Confidential, Peoria, IL

Responsibilities:

• Interact closely with cross - functional design teams to resolve embedded system design/integration issues for Machine Security, Control Systems and Bluetooth/WiFi technologies for CAT construction/mining machines
• Compile reports on specification requirements of new security features and design issues and perform FMEA analysis
• Develop and design test architectures and test cases, automate test scripts using Python, and maintain code on Git

• Participate in code review, maintain software builds with Github and Jenkins, and perform JTAG debugging on machine and transceiver ECMs to determine the code failure and suggest corrective actions.
• Validate and analyze the performance of Autoliv B7 Radars and determine the best coverage map for the machines; design mechanical fixtures and harness for mounting the exact location of the Radars for best performance.

Software Integration Engineer

Confidential, San Diego, CA

Responsibilities:

• Interacted closely with cross-functional software and design teams to verify and debug software stability issues and features; analyzed and troubleshot problems and interpreted wireless specifications and product requirements.
• Developed and maintained build system software and tools (such as SCons or CMake) used to generate various image flavours and manage build process of software using a compiler-independent method.
• Engaged in pre-silicon bring-up on simulation/emulation platforms by developing firmware with core driver functions
• Developed integration methodologies and test cases for continuous integration and test automation. Prepared test automation scripts in Python and Perl scripting languages; perform image-level and system-level sanity tests.
• Troubleshot and tested wireless communication systems such as cellular (GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, etc.), Bluetooth, and WiFi technologies on MDM/MSM hardware using RF test equipment (i.e. Agilent Call Box), Oscilloscopes, JTAG, etc.
• Collaborated with program management and product leads to develop software product roadmap and delivery plans

System Design & Analyst (Co-Founder)

Confidential

Responsibilities:

• Designed mechanical enclosures (w/ SolidWorks) for displays; assembled/troubleshot LED display & lighting systems
• Researched on various data analysis tools such as Google Cloud Big Query to perform Big Data Analysis for clients

System Test Engineer

Confidential

Responsibilities:

• Developed test and validation plans to test electronic security devices and IP/Cellular communicators before release
• Tested and troubleshot wireless technologies (such as WiFi, GSM/GPRS, UMTS, LTE) for security device integration
• Compiled test reports for engineering design teams and collaborated to resolve system errors
• Partnered with sales and engineering teams to assemble technical documents and specifications for technical support

Display Test Engineer

Confidential

Responsibilities:

• Prepared and tested the OLED display characteristics over time and validated its performance based on requirements
• Modified PCB boards to capture electrical and thermal properties of the displays (i.e. temperature, current) for tests
• Embedded driver solutions onto PCB display boards, evaluated its performance, suggested solutions for improvement
• Implemented an automated test environment: Partnered with diverse engineering talents to design a robotic arm on a beam that positions a CCD camera to capture luminance and colour change of 10 displays in one sweep
• Analysed test results using MS Excel and suggested solutions to correct non-uniformity and compensate OLED material aging; this analysis was essential for producing high quality displays that meet client expectations
• Reverse engineered mobile devices to study their composition, functionality, and circuitry for future improvement
• Prepared engineering project reports that includes data sheets, specifications, drawings and calculations for review

Embedded Software Test Engineer - Intern
