passenger cars and light/heavy duty trucks
 Developed and launched over 30 production crash sensing calibrations representing single stage frontal airbags,
dual stage frontal airbags, side thorax/head or curtain airbags and front/rear pretensioners
 Provided technical support for field investigations and litigation
 Provided crash data analysis and special studies for both passenger cars (unibody structure) and trucks (body on
frame structure)
 Developed a new system integration algorithm utilizing raw data satellites and passenger compartment sensors
 Managed calibration and algorithm engineering group to support all phases of crash sensing development from
new business quotes through production launch representing multiple OEMs with various regulatory safety
standards
 Trained and deployed calibration engineers into global regions including Germany, Japan and Korea
 Received four patents detailing crash sensing algorithm logic
 Oversaw the algorithm development process for frontal and side sensing applications utilizing passenger
compartment sensors and satellite sensors
May 1994-July 1998 Systems Application Engineer (Supplemental Inflatable Restraints Group)
