Résumé

Valencia, CA · Salt Lake City, UT

• Lead a team of 10+ in-house engineers and contractors across multiple disciplines, building the control systems for a state-of-the-art particle accelerator facility.
• Built out Nusano's in-house engineering capability across controls hardware, controls software, electronics, application software, and data-center domains.
• Partner with operations, mechanical engineering, physics, and IT to coordinate cross-functional efforts, and serve as a design-review approver providing high-level technical guidance.
• Direct exploratory efforts to integrate machine learning and AI into accelerator applications.

Valencia, CA

• Owned the design, fabrication, commissioning, and testing of the full control-system scope for a commercial heavy-ion particle accelerator producing medical radioisotopes at industrial scale.
• Translated stakeholder needs into detailed design specifications and requirements across facility layout, electrical, and telecom efforts.
• Oversaw a team of controls electrical and software engineers, plus the panel shop, IT, system builder, and outsourced software vendors.
• Championed best practices for control-systems development (CI/CD, UX, test, hardware).

Valencia, CA

• Designed and developed PLC software to the IEC 61131 standard (Structured Text).
• Designed controls hardware and produced system-level analysis (cable schedules, routing, I/O lists, panel loads).
• Configured networking equipment (VLANs) and networked devices, and oversaw vendor SATs for software deliverables.
• Led FMEA efforts to identify, assess, and mitigate safety issues.

Monrovia, CA

• Lead software engineer for the Autoflow and Glovebox hermetic seam-sealing systems.
• Developed C# and PLC code to drive a multi-axis motion-control system inside a controlled-gas environment.
• Owned the software feature roadmap, advising project management on scope, timelines, and technical detail.
• Integrated automated software-test tooling and version control.

Glendale, CA

• Founded a small studio focused on immersive virtual- and augmented-reality experiences.
• Drove the creative and technical development of The Torus Syndicate, a VR game built in C# on the Unity engine.
• Responsible for overall systems design and integration, front-end implementation, and core game logic.

Glendale, CA · Shanghai, China

• Developed large PLC software (1500+ I/O points) for a state-of-the-art, high-throughput roller coaster at Shanghai Disneyland.
• Specified the full software system in UML under the mentorship of senior engineering staff.
• Led a team of engineers and operators to coordinate testing and adjustment of a safety-critical control system in a foreign, dynamic, and time-sensitive environment.
• Designed and implemented a park-wide HMI system, managing a successful migration of responsibilities to a local engineer while maintaining consistency and scope.
• Wrote detailed test documentation, managed the version-control system, and maintained auxiliary SCADA systems.

Speaker · Organizer

• Created Open Project Space, a nation-wide program providing micro-grants to IEEE student branches to develop hands-on electronics education programs.
• Keynote speaker and contributor for the Rising Stars student leadership conference.
• Member of IEEE's global speaker program, serving engineering students across the US and Asia.

• Built a full-stack TypeScript/React application, using Anthropic's Claude as a systematic AI coding partner for feature implementation, bug resolution, and infrastructure automation.
• Implemented automated CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions to synchronize Grafana dashboards from version-controlled JSON configurations.
• Integrated real-time analytics and monitoring with Grafana, Supabase, and custom edge functions for player-engagement tracking.
