Expertise
Eight domains, each earned hands-on — in drive-test vehicles, anechoic chambers, data centers, flight lines, and clean rooms. Signal strength shows depth of experience.
🔬 RF & Wireless Test Engineering
Test plans and procedures for flight hardware, custom ATE design & verification, acceptance/qualification campaigns (ATP/QTP), test readiness reviews, root cause analysis, live telemetry monitoring, and verification artifact generation.
📡 5G / LTE / RAN Engineering
5G NR (n2, n5, n41, n71) and LTE (B2, B5, B41, B66, B71) testing for AT&T and T-Mobile. Drive testing across dozens of states, KPI analysis, E911 validation, and RF optimization — ANR, PCI planning, handover tuning, SON.
🏭 Private LTE/5G & CBRS
End-to-end private network design: 5G NSA/SA, in-building DAS, neutral host, Wi-Fi offload. vRAN/O-RAN and core vendor evaluation (Airspan, JMA, Athonet, Celona, Druid, Mavenir). CBRS Certified Professional Installer — SAS registration and spectrum allocation.
🌙 Avionics & Space Communications
RF/comms test engineering for lunar flight hardware at Blue Origin. High-gain antenna test methodology for satellite & space links, environmental campaigns (thermal vacuum, shock, vibration), telemetry monitoring, and clean-room hardware handling for Lunar Lander MK1.
🚁 UAS / eVTOL Data Links
Multi-link RF architecture for AI-piloted eVTOL aircraft: ISM, LTE, C-Band satcom, Starlink, Doodle Labs. Self-forming MANET over SDR for URLLC (+300% link performance), triple-redundant ground control with Prometheus/Grafana monitoring, flight test support, and pre-flight RF checklists.
