EXPERIENCE:
6/05-PRESENT	Software Engineer Intel Corporation, Santa Clara Design Technology and Solutions Group Implemented features within an Automatic Test Pattern Generation (ATPG) tool for microprocessors and chips sets. Determined and clarified design team requirements prior to writing specifications for feature development. Maintained GNU autotools based build and specialized regression environments. Ported and validated C++ code through numerous compiler and platform changes. Projects included interactive debug, enhanced ATPG learning, and Design for Test (DFT) validation features through a programming interface.
4/00-6/05	CAD Engineer Intel Corporation, Santa Clara Design Technology and Solutions Group Worked with a very small team to enable Defect Based Test. Responsibilities included: Productized fault extraction, fault mapping, and fault sampling for several fabrication defect models. Pioneered ATPG execution for several defect models and delivered those test patterns for production testing. Developed and refined innovative methodologies to increase coverage metrics through controlled experiments. Evaluated microprocessor test patterns to identify test holes and help improve product yield. Responsibilities included: Collected test pattern effectiveness through fault simulation on initial and subsequent patterns used to fill test holes. Reported test patterm effectiveness to determine locations of test holes and track progress of subsequent tests.
7/99-9/99; 6/98-9/98	Graduate Intern Technical Intel Corporation, Santa Clara Design Technology Group Implemented a tool from scratch in C++ that transforms data from a variety of VLSI layout formats. Used layouts from microprocessor functional blocks. Extracted data was passed to an Inductive Fault Analysis (IFA) tool. Developed capabilities that extracted layout information, connected polygons, and propagated electrical net name information within and across metal layers. Validated results and compared run times from industry standard tools.
10/96-7/99	Student Programmer Computer Engineering Department, University of California, Santa Cruz Worked with a small group on an Inductive Fault Analysis (IFA) tool written in C to identify possible defect locations in VLSI CMOS circuits. Developed and released new features for the IFA tool. Resolved bugs and answered questions from customers.
6/96-9/96	Information Technologies Student Intern Modesto Irrigation District, IT Department Designed and implemented the District's web page. Installed network clients and network client applications. Installed and upgraded new hardware and resolved software problems.
