• I have worked with Software Development for Adaptive Flight Displays system (AFDs) for the KC-390 tanker/transport Aircraft Program.
• Fusion display applications are a new approach to hybrid displays. Responsibilities here include Requirements Development, Software Implementation and Testing of the various modules of the displays applications on AFD including EICAS software.
• Largely a CoRE Technical person, but with Increasing experience in Various domains and project Lifecycle, I have led a team of varying sizes (5-18 Engineers) to successful milestones. I have also helped in Recruitment and On-boarding Process. Mentoring Engineers has been a core part of my responsibilities throughout my career. Mentoring is a challenge I always look forward to, as it gives me an Opportunity to Learn and Teach at the same time, Carving raw skills of a Mentee.
• Also have worked with Hardware & Software Development & Integration team of A350-XWB Information Management On-board Project (Now Known as "Fly Smart"). Having key skills for Linux and Embedded platforms, strong analytic abilities contributing highly towards the integration of end deliverable (Hardware and software) on Embedded Platforms.
• I have also worked with a Project in Avionics simulations for 2.5 years.
• Project included development of ADA/C/C++/QT simulations as interface for the Integrated simulations for Avionics System Development.
• The simulation development needed a core understanding of the domain usage of the LRUs, respective data interfaces & Protocols (ARINC, Serial, etc.)
• This work made me proficient with C/C++/QT development.
• I also worked with Python and various tools based on PHP, SQL and a focal for VBA macro development.
• Along with this, I have also worked on various short-term projects of varying domains and skills, including Mobile Application Development, Structural Coverage Analysis for International Chinook Displays Software, Graphics Server Development, Graphical UI Designs and a few more.
