PROFILE

Multidisciplinary professional (who has worked for top organizations) which combines mathematics skills from graduate study in physics, and 20 years of programming experience in the IT industry using numerous technologies and languages. I have played many of the roles in the software development arena to support company in their software project and business product development. I have taken numerous software projects from initial conception to deployment. Proficient developing software targeting scientific application using modern software paradigm and scientific programming technique.

Time Line in the Business

  • Worked for world leader L-3 COMM Mapps (healthcare surgery simulator), Morgan Stanley (financial bank investment) and IKEA (virtual reality) and world leader CAE (simulation);
  • As a contractor developed custom software programs for different industrial domain of application;
  • Worked as a scientific programmer for a Research Center on Computation (technology transfer);
  • Founded a software consulting, scientific programming, and technology transfer company;

Relevant Achievements

  • Ported/adapted a 3D application (scene graph data model of an interior design room) from proprietary format to Autodesk FBX format that is supported by Virtual Reality engine;
  • Developed a library for data collection system to quantitatively measure surgeon motor behavior in the operating room;
  • Ported an client-server application for a credit card/bank payment transactions from Win API to Unix IBM AIX (project with critical deadlines);
  • Designed and implemented an object-oriented library to detect wane on rough hardwood lumber. This library featured an open architecture using OO, improving drastically on traditional technique;
  • Set up a collaborative work effort (University-Industry) for cautioning mathematical models in the hydraulics field (Technology Transfer Initiative for the hydro-electricity industry);
  • Developed graphics software with visualization capabilities of a circuit model from an input file, thus greatly simplifying the task of manipulating, visualizing and testing the circuit components (GRSplits);
  • Re-factored (API) package for an optimization problem (non-linear shape fitting). The algorithm was more than twice as fast as the original;


Industrial Physicist

By industrial physicist I am referring to physicists who work for private companies. These range from the very large, such as Lockheed Martin, GE, and IBM among so many others, down to the one man start-up company. Industrial physicists are distinct from their academic counterpart both in their professional activities and in the roles they play in their organizations. In a research institute a physicist is called a physicist. In a company, a physicist will find him/herself being defined by the needs of the corporation, and might bear such titles as engineer, analyst, programmer, or manager, and only sometimes physicist.
