Richard Milne

Sole employee of my own company, which offers data mining and signal-, image- and data-processing services, as well as web and application development. Currently implementing a web-based version control system to manage design submissions from several agencies, and to allow the client to review (à la YouTube), comment on and approve designs. Applications and server backends programmed in Python (with some C) while web-based GUIs developed using HTML, CSS and Javascript.

Prepare analyses and reports for divisional compensation heads and senior management. Previous reports were inconsistent, difficult and time-consuming to produce and modify, and thus often contained errors. To solve these problems, I created my own cross-platform (Windows, Debian Linux) reporting solution, by first reverse engineering (using MSDbg, Wireshark) the existing modelling tool and its protocols, and re-implementing them in Python/C.

Extend the capabilities of the CodeWarrior 8/16-bit development suite by producing service packs containing support for new micro-controller derivatives or target interfaces. Work with internal and external clients to formulate specifications and develop components, while maintaining backwards compatibility. Improve quality by automating (using Python scripting) error-prone stages of build and development process, and by documenting procedures. Ensure procedures were followed and train others in their use.
