      May 2016 - Aug 2016
      Specialist, systems integration (co-op student)

      I worked in Saint John, NB on the Video Innovation Centre (VIC) team.I supported test efforts to launch Canada's first wireless 4K PVR - this required testing on a new set-top box platform (VIP5662) and the VIP3400 and HomeHub 3000 to provide the wireless in-home access. These devices launched in August 2016.To support this testing I leveraged Ixia software, iperf, Wireshark, and WiSpy to create various test scenarios and monitor the video experience. This effort required many iterations of device firmwares and network optimizations, so it was important to ensure the testing was rapid, quantitative, and reproducible. Show less
