Pedro Delgado - Senior Systems Engineer

  • Expert in taking a R&D project from an idea and general functional requirements to a working prototype. This includes conceptual brainstorming, evaluation and selection of hardware, develop system architecture, circuit design to integrate selected hardware, software development environment and tools selections, software development, hardware/software integration.
  • Optimizing the working prototype design for production. This includes customer proposal, budget estimation, conceptual design drawings, detailed design, module and system testing, engineering team selection/training and customer training.
  • Developing the design documents, using the IEEE specifications guidelines.  This includes the Project Management Plan (PMP), Interface Control Document (ICD), Software Requirement Specification (SRS) and Software Design Document (SDD).
  • Expert in developing communication protocols for the onboard high speed data based on industrial Ethernet and a highly deterministic serial network standard used for the Train Control Network (TCN).
  • Developing a highly efficient and reliable distributed input/output (I/O) Ethernet infrastructure to interface to sensors and other digital and analog I/O signals. This reduced the number of wires thus increasing reliability and reducing weight and wiring complexity of the vehicle.
  • Integrating GPS navigation with the vehicle tachometer subsystem to provide more accurate vehicle location using dead reckoning.
  • Integrating wireless technology with the vehicle communication, monitoring and diagnostic controllers to facilitate the download of diagnostic data and the upload of vehicle subsystems databases, data files, and firmware updates.
  • Integrating industrial Voice over IP (VoIP) equipment to implement the vehicles audio requirements for the passenger emergency intercom, Public Amplifier subsystem, Audible Warning Devices, etc.
  • Expert in Configuration Management of a team of programmers, design and development of in-house embedded multi language software for the embedded controllers for several projects, and using agile collaboration tools.
  • Management, design and development of the test equipment hardware and software for the complete vehicle performance and acceptance test (VMU).
  • Integration and circuit development of the vehicle circuits and subsystems from the 750 VDC input voltage to the digital logic and vehicle embedded controllers.
  • Development of EMI test procedures and performed the field test for vehicles for multiple projects.
  • Expert in Modeling Real Time Systems using the Structured Development System.
  • Developed controller boards used by the GE EDAC based data systems to extract usage data from GE meters.
  • Developed algorithms for satellite receiver signal synchronization.
  • First Article Inspection support for inspectors and vendors.
