Intel Corporation (Originally employed by Dialogic Corporation until acquisition in July 1999) Firmware Engineer Designed, maintained, and tested embedded software for ISDN/CAS network interface cards for call center/voice mail/PBX systems. Software was object-oriented in design, using C/C++ and assembler for Motorola and Intel CPUs and Motorola DSPs, and ran on VxWorks-based kernel. Also designed Windows/Linux/Unix applications to test embedded software and its interaction with host library/driver software. Test software was written with C/C++/MFC. Worked in design teams ranging in size from 1 to 7 including self. Became key expert on ISDN products and provided support for other design groups, test groups, and technical support. Also mentored co-op and new full-time employees, along with training both new and veteran employees on using software both commercial and self-designed. |
