2003-Present: U.S. Based T&M Company 2003 - Present: Senior Project Engineer - Includes RF, Analog, Embedded and PC software design and development - I am working on the next generation of wireless test instrumentation products. This involves the design of precision RF and Analog circuits from DC-20 GHz, developing and delivering embedded control / PC Software applications for a variety of measurement based systems. 1996-2003: Agilent Technologies Wireless Test and Measurement Groups, Santa Rosa, CA (Formerly known as: Hewlett-Packard - Microwave Instruments Division) 2000 - 2003: Research and Development Engineer involved with the design of next generation automated testing systems for cellular telephone networks. Fractional N and classical PLL design, analog and digital control design. LC and crystal oscillator and VCO design. Direct digital synthesis (DDS) circuits. High performance switch matrix design, Power system design. 1999 - 2000: Research and Development Engineer E6500A VXI Bus Based Broadband Receiver. Worked on the ongoing development and design of the E6500A, VXI Bus based DC-Microwave receiver system. Involved with the Microwave/RF, LO and Digital IF designs, baseband and tuned IF amplifier design, high rate Nyquist data acquisition with large scale pseudo-random dither for spurious free dynamic range improvement, high speed digital gain correction and control PAL design. 1996-1999: Electronic Manufacturing Engineer for the HP84000 High Speed RFIC test system. I was involved with developing production microwave, RF and DC tests to verify the performance of the system including microwave error analysis. Worked closely with the system engineer and design team to set production and customer specifications. Other duties include diagnosing and implementing fixes to customer/production electronics problems. Many of the problems have included working closely with vendors and customers on quality issues, Hardware/Software and improving the reliability of many customer and Device Under Test interface circuits. 1982-1996: CALEX MFG. CO., INC., Concord, CA Over thirteen years I held the Engineering Manager and Technical Director titles at CALEX. I had responsibility ranging from design, documentation, test and production, to installation of CALEX products in customers equipment. My duties included new product development, electro mechanical packaging, PCB Design, data sheet development and insuring active involvement of key people in the product development / manufacturing process. I am experienced with ISO 9000 registration, procedures and statistical process control. I taught many internal classes to the technical and sales staff at CALEX and CALEX customers. These included: New product presentations, PCB layout methods, SPICE circuit simulation and SMT design for manufacturing methodologies. Responsible for the design and manufacturing of: DC/DC converters, in-house test equipment, engineering test facilities and instrumentation products. Personally developed and shipped over 400 power supply types with total sales approaching 50 Million dollars. 1981-1982 E.H. International Inc., Oakland, CA I worked on the design and development of Phase Locked Loop trigger circuits and the analog front end for a 1 GHz sampling digital oscilloscope. I had design responsibility for the entire signal path of the oscilloscope from the sampling heads to the A/D converters output. 1978-1981 ZELTEX Inc., Concord, CA I developed high speed modular A/D and D/A converters, discrete amplifier products, Log Amps, Sample/Hold Modules and Dual Slope A/D converters. Resolution of designs produced was 8-16 bits with bandwidths exceeding DC-350 MHz in the signal path. Duties included circuit design, customer / production documentation and manufacturing support. 1977-1978 ITP Corporation, Sunnyvale, CA As a summer intern I developed analog circuitry and computer software for the first ever scanning electron microscope micro-measuring system.
