Leslie John Sox

Master's GIST student / graduate at the North Carolina State University Center for Geospatial Analytics
Location: Raleigh, NC, USA
4th generation Wake County, NC resident, NC Native born in Raleigh, North Carolina

I worked in high speed optical networks in electronics and fiber-optics and maintained an R&D hardware development laboratory at Alcatel-Lucent in Raleigh 1997-2009. We were first to market in gigabit passive optical networking in 2005 and won a contract with Verizon FiOS in 2008. In 1997, I started as a technician performing optical module bit error rate, eye mask, extinction ratio, Tx optical output power and receiver sensitivity testing in high speed SONET (synchronous optical networks). In 2001-2009 I was a hardware design engineering technician in fiber to the home hardware development at Alcatel-Lucent in Raleigh, NC. I also have experience in schematic capture, hardware testing and in SMT electronics hardware development, Monte Vista embedded Linux for networking and ITU G.984.3 GPON fiber to the home standards.

I have about 10 years combined experience in UNIX with HP UX and Sun Solaris. In 2013, I worked in the IBM Harrier enterprise server hardware development group in RTP on the Extreme I/O network interface card that featured AOC (active optical cables), 40GBps copper and optical QSFP. In 2011-2012 I worked at Schneider Electric in Knightdale, NC as a system validation engineer for the Wiser Efficient Home wireless ZigBee home energy monitoring project released in France. In 2014, in Durham, NC I worked in analytical troubleshooting of hardware failures for EMC Intel S2600 GZ (code name grizzly) storage servers with up to 24 TB of storage space, dual Intel Xeon processors, 256GB of RAM, RAID, 40 GB Fiber Channel SAN and 10GBE. I have attended the NC GIS conference in years 2011, 2013, 2015.
