Employment History

I formerly worked for Intel (May 2000-August 2001). Due to the economy, I was recently laid off from Intel.

Work included creating a PXE (Pre-boot eXecution Environment) server in C, with web front-end configuration tools, and designing the interaction between the OS installations and the management console. I also managed the team that implemented the work, and was the liaison between our team, marketing, testing, and other groups within the project.

I worked previously for Panja (June 1998-May 2000). I worked in the P3 Department (Panja Partner Program), interfacing custom partner hardware. Roles include:

C++ Programmer, Landmark Home Automation System. Written in C++ and MFC, running under Windows 9X and NT, Landmark is a large object-oriented system. Work involved creating and reviewing functional specifications, scheduling tasks, C++ programming, testing, and debugging.

Some of the larger firmware projects included the ITI Advent Home Navigator security panel, the Proceed AVP Audio/Video Preamplifier, and the Denon DCM-5000 Multi-Zone CD Changer. Other custom firmware included B&W, Rotel, HAI, and Napco.

Partner Interfacing, Various partners. During the process of specification, development, and testing of partner interfaces, I maintained the professional relationship between Panja and the partner companies’ engineering teams.

Prior to Panja, I worked for Keane, Inc. (Erudite Software and Consulting June 1992-1998). Work included Consulting, Project Management, Software Design and Development, and custom Database Design for many varied platforms. Some of these projects included:
