Mark Williams

Designed and implemented embedded compute infrastructure in C/C++ and embedded Linux for satellite communication payloads on ARM Cortex-A processors, reducing end-to-end data processing latency by 17% through pipeline optimization. Built CI test harnesses with Python/pytest/Bash (coverage 42% to 81%) and integrated ONNX Runtime inference (340ms deterministic latency per frame).

Delivered embedded firmware in C/C++ for defense communications prototypes on ARM Cortex-M/A, implementing secure boot and OTA update flows that improved field update reliability by 36%. Led sensor/bus integration planning and testing, reducing system-test integration defects by 28% and automating HIL runs to cut manual test time by 48%.

Developed embedded firmware in C for avionics/electronic-warfare subsystems on RTOS platforms (FreeRTOS, VxWorks), implementing deterministic task scheduling and inter-task messaging. Brought up UART/SPI/I2C/Ethernet peripherals and moved prototype boards from power-on to acceptance test in under six weeks, while increasing regression run frequency from monthly to daily using automated Python/shel
