About Sherman Der

Education I graduated from McGill University in Montreal (Canada) with a Bachelor in Electrical Engineering. Before then, I was studying Pure & Applied Sciences at Marianopolis College. I also completed thirteen years of chinese studies. Work Experience Before taking on this position at Microsoft in Redmond, I attempted a variety of internships and career paths. The thirst for Engineering began with my two summer internships at Pratt & Whitney Canada. My career began in the Satellite Operations department at the Canadian Space Agency where I was responsible for developing, testing, and releasing a real-time product structure oriented server-side application used for the maintenance and operation of the SciSat and RadarSat-1 satellites. This application was awarded a spot at the SpaceOps2004 conferences held in Montreal. After this, I explored the hardware industry at Matrox Electronic Systems as a FPGA-ASIC Validation Specialist, where I took part in designing, developing, and testing several medical imaging boards. Finally, I attempted to explore the Aerospace industry once again at CAE as a System Software Specialist in the Air-to-Air Tactics and Analysis division for the CF-18 aircraft; where I was responsible for developing and designing real-time embedded software for Missiles and GPS Navigational systems.
