Highlights of Employment
Proterra Corporation, Greenville, SC. July 2012 – Present
Title: Electrical Engineer
• Support and troubleshooting of automatic fast charge system for the Proterra electric passenger bus.
Duties also include redesign of wire harness for future electric bus project.
Ultralife coporation, Hybrid Power Group, West Point, MS. Apr 2011 – Nov 2011
Title: Embedded Systems Engineer
• Developed firmware in the “C/C++” language for the NXP Arm Cortex M3 microcontrollers, using the
Keil integrated development environment. The firmware is used in Hybrid power systems such as fuel cells, where it performs self-tests, monitors temperatures, and controls motors, fans and blowers, logging functions, power-management and error conditions.
Peace River Technologies, Zolfo Springs, Florida: Dec. 2009 to Jan. 2011.
Title: Embedded Programmer / Embedded Engineer for Remote Operated Submarine (ROV) vehicle.
• Developed firmware in the “C/C++” programming language for ARM7 microcontrollers (NXP LPC2103) using the IAR Embedded Workbench integrated development environment. Firmware is used for on-board self tests, RS-485 communications, control of six DC PWM motors, LED light array, Analog-to-Digital (A/D) pressure/temperature measurement, 3-Axis compass data, and camera control.
• Developed graphical user interface (GUI) software for laptop PCs, which serves as a remote controller,
along with a game pad joystick to communicate with the on-board firmware.
Electronic Troubleshooting and repair of current SMT (Surface Mount Technology) printed circuit boards. Requires practical “hands-on” use of electronic test instruments such as digital meters, soldering and hot air rework equipment, knowledge of schematics, printed circuit board design and layout tools.
