Relevant Experience
2008-Present Senior Software Engineer
Crucial Memory; Boise, ID
* Developed internal ASP. Net 2.0 system for configuring and maintaining the crucial.com website.


2004-2008 Senior Software Engineer - (Realtime Defect Analysis) RDA
Micron Technology; Boise, ID
* Responsible for enhancing and developing the internally developed Real-time Defect Analysis system used for inline inspection and review of wafers at Micron. This is a distributed multi-process/multi-threaded real-time data analysis system written in .Net C++ 7.1 (unmanaged). It is currently being rewritten for the .Net platform in C#. I am responsible for designing the new system to include a wide variety of new features using both simple and advanced statistical methods and computational geometry. The enhancements range include creating three-dimensional tessellations of defects to be used for defect source analysis (DSA) and die yield modeling; the incorporation of measurement error to define DSA windows; and advanced sampling techniques for reviewing and classifying defects. A second phase of the project will add pattern recognition and image analysis methods for defect and defect cluster classification.

2002-2004, Software Engineer - Process Control
Micron Technology; Boise, ID
* Developed a new advanced process control system to be used at Micron. The original approach was based on a scripting language. This was latter replaced based on a workflow engine. This project was conducted using C++ and Java. The system was designed to allow process control engineers to create workflows using a GUI based on customized tasks developed internally that were incorporated into the Workflow engine.

2000-2002, Software Engineer - Automation
Micron Technology; Boise, ID
* Developed hosts for Automating Semiconductor tools.
* Worked on a team to develop a new Automation framework for developing hosts. This system was based on COM and DCOM using both Visual C++ and Basic.

1994 - 2000, Modeler
USDA Forest Service, Southern Research Station; Auburn, AL
* Developing DCOM simulation model for management of the Longleaf pine ecosystem of the southern U.S.
* Obtained $650K of research grants to support modeling efforts.
* Supervise 1 full-time scientist, 2 full-time technicians and 2 part-time technicians.
* Modeling team coordinator - coordinated and financially supported efforts with cooperating scientists at Auburn University.
* Developed Windows C++ software system to calculate the light extinction under different forest canopies.
* Designed and ensured maintenance of MS Access database for project.
* Conference organizer, workshop chairman and instructor, "The Modeling of Complex Systems Conference and the Component Object Model Workshop," New Orleans, LA, July 12-17, 1998.

1992 - 1994, Modeler
USDA Forest Service, Southern Research Station; Starkville, MS
* Designed forest management model for Loblolly pine management using OO Software Engineering methods and CASE tools.
* Obtained $100K of research grants to support research.
* Developed C++ tree-ring measurement system based on TIFF images of tree cross sections.

1986-1992, Biometrician
USDA Forest Service, Southern Research Station; New Orleans, LA
* Developed statistical methods for application to forestry and assisted other scientists in data analysis.
* Designed and developed a software system to calculate the amount of light penetrating forest canopies based on TIFF images of hemispherical photographs.
