Background

About Michael Dow

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 14 years of experience in software development and system engineering. My expertise includes full stack development, embedded systems, and algorithm engineering. Currently, I lead the technical efforts for the Vehicle Controls Application Management (VCAM) web application at General Motors. I have deployed VCAM to Pivotal Cloud Foundry, developed solutions using Angular, TypeScript, and Spring Boot, and managed build/release pipelines with Azure DevOps and Git. I also design and maintain PostgreSQL databases and mentor new employees. Previously, at FANUC, I enhanced embedded coding proficiency with ANSI C, developed core operating system functions, and supported the launch of the New Compact Controller (SCARA). As an Algorithm Engineer at Continental Automotive, I improved radar functionality for CAN bus output and ensured system performance through effective customer communication. In earlier roles, I led the Electrical Steering Column Lock project at Nexteer and developed C++ converters and visualization tools for SAR data at Lockheed Martin.
