Keyosk.com Inc.
1999-Now: I started my own company, which is centered around Electronic Consulting,
from Design to Manufacturing, and Internet Database Applications and Networking.
I have a handful of networking clients in the medical/dental arena where I provide
hosting, web site development, database development and office network
assistance.
In the Electronics Engineering realm I have a few designs heading for products for Keyosk.com.
Please refer to Product Development page for a
snap shot of existing boards in development.
I use Altium/Protel Schematic Capture and Printed Circuit Board Design
software. For programming the MSP430 I prefer the
Image Craft compiler with the
Pumpkin Salvo Real Time Operating System.
Other tools consist of Xilinx for Cool Runner FPGA design,
and PHP and MySQL for any Web Applications.
EMPLOYMENT
2000-2002: Web Application Development, MCI/Worldcom:
Maintained Several Existing Cold Fusion applications
while building a new Prepaid Phone Card ordering tool. Built "Web-X"
which allowed internal customers order 30M prepaid phone cards per year. Used
Oracle, XML and later JAVA for Web Applications.
1995-1999: Web Development, NT Administration, Network Design; Tektronix:
I Set up the first manufacturing Web site which included
Netscape Enterprise Web Server, Cold Fusion rapid application development system
and Sybase Database. Integrated all three on a Windows NT 4.0 Server platform
and network. Evaluated many other programs that did not make it into this
system. I wrote Web based applications on this system that could extend
around the world on the Internet and still be behind the Tektronix fire wall.
The first application written was a Year 2000 software tracking program.
The second was a printed circuit board library and viewer archive. Both
could be used anywhere there was a Tektronix office in the world.
1992-1995: Manufacturing Engineering 11K Oscilloscopes; Tektronix:
Sustain older instruments and brought new instruments into manufacturing using ISO 9000 tools. Redesigned parts of instruments in order to continue manufacturing. Worked with hardware and software design to make changes to existing products. Wrote instrument test programs using Visual C/C++ which are used every day in assembly line manufacturing.
1991-1992: Electronics Hardware/Software Engineer; Tektronix:
Worked on the Picoscope, a fast optical digitizer. Communicated the Picoscope prototype system designs to the new engineers and project leader as they entered our product development team. Helped outline some of the system design changes for the new features and the new platform. Designed the "Data/Communication Bus" which linked the optical Acquisition Module to the Controller Module. Designed the 68HC11 micro controller circuitry into the Acquisition Module. Assisted with the software design on both sides of the bus in order to implement the necessary bus arbitration.
1988-1991: Electronics Hardware/Software Engineer; Tektronix:
Worked on the Picoscope, a fast optical digitizer. Designed all the software for the Picoscope "Research Prototype" and made minor digital hardware contributions. Designed all of the digital system architecture of the "Engineering Prototype" and most of the digital hardware in the system. The "Engineering Prototype" was 80386 PC based and was a great customer demonstration tool and component test fixture. Design most of the digital circuitry with XILINX CAD tools. Outlined the system requirements to transfer from 80386 to 68020.
1984-1988: Electronics Hardware/Software Engineer; Tektronix:
Worked with a team that evaluated the 11000 series oscilloscopes. Designed a tool called the Mainframe Simulator which enhanced Plug-In hardware and software development. The simulator was a Personal Computer, (PC), based instrument that consisted of analog and digital hardware and C coded software. All of the functions of the Plug-Ins could be tested including calibration. I evaluated the 11A32, 11A34, 11A52, 11A71 and 11A33 Plug-Ins and the 11000 mainframes in which they could be used. Responsible for many bug discoveries and design modifications. I wrote automated GPIB tests for the simulator and all of the Plug-Ins.
Worked with a team that evaluated the 11800 series Sampling Oscilloscopes. Worked specifically on the vertical system for which I designed a Sampling Head Simulator. Wrote a program for automated vertical testing.
1981-1984: Consultant to Dr. John Crabbe; VA Medical Center:
Invented, designed and built a telemetered temperature monitoring system for laboratory use. Wrote a paper on my invention which won second prize in the IEEE competition.
1979-1981: Lab Assistant to Dr. Richard Allen;
Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland Or.
Biochemical analysis of mouse, rat and human hormones; Radio immunoassay for ACTH and Endorphin; Initialized and maintain tissue cultures of human pituitary.
