Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKenneth Palmer is a Senior Networking and Distributed Systems Engineer with nearly three decades of hands-on experience designing and shipping real-time embedded and simulation software across defense, medical devices, and advanced networking domains. He brings deep C/C++ expertise (over 10 years focused, extensive work with VS2008/VS2005/VC6) combined with practical knowledge of communication protocols (TCP/IP, SNMP/UDP, SSH, RS-232) and cryptographic integrations. A longtime ClearCase and build/release SME, he has supported large, distributed development teams and defined FDA-compliant release processes while automating nightly builds and complex branching/merge strategies. At Raytheon he led simulation feed projects and at MITRE he continues to apply those skills to advanced network technology; earlier roles include embedded ultrasound work that blended low-level device control with image-processing features. He pairs embedded systems depth (PowerPC, MIPS, VME, real-time UNIX/RTOS) with tooling fluency (SCons, Electric Cloud, clearmake) and a pragmatic focus on integration and developer productivity. Colleagues rely on him not only for tough debugging and porting tasks but also for unglamorous release engineering that keeps large programs running smoothly.
