* Communicated with hardware team to help identify and trouble-shoot different bugs and technical problems found in design. * Developed Perl script which is designed to parse through XMLs to identify all interrupts and create UVM and System Verilog code to monitor each interrupt during tests * Wrote internal technical report which is used as a reference for developed interrupt monitor * Debug and trouble-shoot Perl script to create interrupt monitors at a component and system level * Used object oriented language, UVM, to create test cases to verify basic functionality of the interrupt monitor developed * Created test cases to verify hardware defined and undefined registers in hardware design * Facilitated repetitive tasks such as XML parsing and simple code writing by using Python and bash scripts * Designed and develop test cases in CentOS Linux environment using different editors such as VIM and Eclipse

* Active Impressed Current Corrosion Protection Project Jul 2013 - Aug 2014 * Dr. Bozena Kaminska, CiBER lab, SFU *  Designed experimental set-up required to prove validity of personal theoretical hypothesis involving an innovative methodology to impress optimal corrosion protection *  Collected data to demonstrate validity of hypothesis by testing methodology in different corrosive environments *  Conducted cost analysis of innovative design and compared it to current potential competitors to verify the viability of product

* Designed and created prototypes to be implemented for future outdoor products * Studied and optimized the unconventional attachment of electronic components * Collected and evaluated optical, electrical and mechanical data for prototype design * Interacted with different teams in order to develop the newest Cooledge products * Wrote several reports to present a summary of all investigations and results for future reference
