Expert has developed numerous embedded products in the fields of Medical Instrumentation, Consumer Electronics, Scientific Instrumentation and Telecommunications. Embedded firmware has been written in C/C++ for a wide variety of microcontrollers, including ARM processors from NXP, TI, Atmel, and ST Micro, as well as many 8-, 16- and 32-bit micros developed by Freescale and Microchip. Expert's extensive experience in new product development has given him the ability to quickly analyze and report on the essential algorithms that make up the core of any real-time embedded system.

Starting from scratch, Expert designed and delivered a complete TCP/IP-based environmental monitoring system in four short months for the Employer. The project started up in mid-January this year, and Lockheed-Martin took delivery of the first working system in mid-April.A complete automotive stereo system was designed and developed for Aston Martin in just four months. The design work began in August of 2009, and the first working unit was demonstrated to Aston Martin in December of the same year.In just ten short weeks, Expert developed the firmware for Murata Power Solutions' AC/DC Power Supply System. This involved developing firmware for three different cooperating microcontrollers.

Additional Experience

Vendor Selection
Linked-In has been an invaluable resource.
Marketing Experience
In spite of the critical importance of firmware, it continues to be poorly documented by developers. This includes a paucity of inline comments in the code, as well as a near total lack of accompanying requirements and design documents. One of Expert's great strengths is the ability to quickly reverse-engineer and report on the structures and algorithms in the code in spite of its poor documentation.
Other Relevant Experience
Strong communication skills, both written and oral. A good listener. Willing to work late at night and on weekends to get a job done. Willing to travel when necessary.
