WORKING/ EXPERIENCE:

R&D LEDs Test Software Consultant

Confidential, Silicon Valley, CA

Responsibilities:

• Design and create an general LED test system to characterize the full IV curve by performing an IV sweep using current pulses, this system gives us the ability to provide the required power for each test point in the sweep without requiring multiple SMUs or an external heat sink.
• Create several Automatic Tests Burn-in for power LEDs, in order to study and characterize various semiconductor alloys (AlGaAs, AlInGaP, GaP and InGaN).
• Using LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI; design and create a set of software tools (DataManipulation.exe) that allow manipulation, display and interpretation of numerous data, and facilitate the VTF Epitaxial growth design.

Test Automation Software Consultant

Confidential, Silicon Valley, CA

Responsibilities:

• Design and develop of LabVIEW test apps for Power and Performance optimization of ARM processors, which can include multiple clusters of multi-core CPUs, extensive on-die interconnect fabric, advanced memory subsystems including more than on channel of high speed DDR interfaces, and various high speed serial IO interfaces such as Ethernet, SATA, PCI express, USB and flash memories.
• Design and develop code of automated functional tests for Confidential, in order to verify the functions, performance, reliability, stability and design margin of hardware and developing and improving test methods, procedures and technologies.
