WORK EXPERIENCE
Software Engineer – Staff Engineer May 2005-present
Seagate Technology
Designed, developed, and supported production software to test factory heads and media discs in hard drives using C and C++. Created test software suites that called firmware (embedded Real Time software, running on a TI processor) that worked with reconfigurable hardware by FPGA revisions. Worked daily with firmware and hardware when I troubleshot and debugged code to solve software issues for customers. Maintained a code base with millions of lines of C code in order to develop new features requested by engineers, while maintaining backward compatibility.
• Continue to provide excellent customer service after < 8 years in Seagate Engineering role
• Wrote server code for an oscilloscope to capture waveform data, handle post-processing activities, and return the results through TCP/IP; typical data volume was > 10 million data points
• Designed a C framework to make calls to a web service for a 3rd party OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) tracking program
• Created host software that communicates with hard drive controller channel boards and preamps to perform product component tests for both engineering and production use
• Per engineering request and referencing hardware description, wrote C++ code that optimized detection of bit error rate by creating an abstract interface to deal with data channel optimization
• Mentored software summer intern on a task that replaced a spreadsheet computation and eliminated typographical transcription errors
• Collaborated with Quality Engineers on software modifications to promote code to next level of development
• Successfully solved several baffling and difficult problems including:
o Implementation of a software-based control that automatically downloaded firmware from PIC16 to PIC18; and
o set up communication between host PC and EWR electrical tester to a Python API
• Reduced testing time and increased Units Per Hour Output in production by implementing a series of optimizations
Software Developer November 1998-May 2005
Seagate Technology
Successfully designed, developed, tested, enhanced, and supported software for Seagate's Sales and Marketing group using Java, SQL, and Html.
• Applied Six Sigma Green Belt training to improve the performance of a report that was unable to handle a large data size
