First major project which had to go through the full software lifecycle (requirements, design, coding, testing). Another significant project (which was co-ordinated with a members of the US software team) was an Excel spreadsheet collecting metric data from a testing program and was able to produce a number of results (i.e. risk factors). The programme was coordinated and rolled out across the American Visteon facility as well as within Visteon UK Ltd (with the program being used by over 100 development/validation staff). As well as these projects, performed everyday roles which involved Peer Reviews, testing software, keeping an up-to-date record of the tools cupboard and ordering new hardware/software.
