Intellon Corp , Ocala FL Nov 2006 – Jan 2010Product Test and Validation Senior Engineer Designed and developed Windows applications targeting powerline network equipment. Created Software

application used for level 2 testing. This application incorporates actual Intellon Firmware code to implement key features such as encryption (decoding and encoding), watchdog log, support, multi unit FW upgrading and support for all MME. The Application was able to capture network packets(using Winpcap), and it is essentially a Hardware sniffer that allows the user to monitor the state of the network. It was written in C++ using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. The test solution also involved the manipulation of matlab models used to inject HomePlug command into the powerline media.

In charged of developing and conducting the entire suite of test in Tours France that guaranteed the success in our quest for certification. The Software tools ultimately became the standard used by the Homeplug Group to measure all future potential members.
