Summary
I have a wide range of experience in various startups and technologies. In these I have done many different types of development, customer interaction, project lead/management, and team management. In particular, I have 15+ years experience in IoT and Smart Grid projects ranging from embedded radios and sensors, network communications, high volume data routing and processing, to working with partners to develop and integrate new technology. I am currently focused on consulting work in both the embedded systems realm and back-end server applications. Specialties: small companies, < 50 Problem solving Broad range of experience (ideal for Agile Dev.) Wireless Communications (spread spectrum, 802.11, unlicensed band devices) Analyzing large data-sets Processing high volumes of new data via standard messaging (Kafka, MQ, JMS, Tibco) Embedded Systems Reliable high volume products (>5 million) Control Systems Java/Pyhon/C/C# Application Development Comfortable using/testing with unproven hardware Automated testing, provisioning, and deployment with Docker, Ansible, and AWS
