Confidential, Upper Saddle River, NJ
Software Engineer, Firmware Engineer
Responsibilities:
- Designed test codes for power PC products.
- This test code was eventually incorporated into the production test suite.
- It was very effective in pinpointing discrepancies in not only the hardware but software as well.
- Enhanced existing source code for various T1 modems.
- The original code which was being implemented proved to be inadequate due to poor coding.
- I revamped the code and made it more efficient which resulted in increased sales for the T1 modem product line.
- Designed graphical user interface which tested the functionality of the T1 modem products.
- Using this GUI decreased testing time and delivered the T1 modem line in a much more timely fashion.
