What I do
Three pillars, one practice.
Software Engineering
DO-178B/C, defensive coding, configuration management, and quality assurance — built into delivery, not bolted on at the end.

About
Three decades. Four regulated industries. One principal.
I have led software engineering on Boeing 737, Airbus A350, A220, A330, the 787 brake control system, the Collins-class submarine combat system, and more. Today I focus on bringing the same standards-driven discipline to AI-augmented delivery.
