- After graduating from Royal Military College
in 1990 with a Degree in Engineering Physics, Trent trained with the Canadian Navy
to be a Combat Systems Engineer. His training included two semesters at the Technical
University of Nova Scotia in an intensive Electrical Engineering upgrading program
followed by Combat Systems Engineering applications training and a year aboard HMCS
MONTREAL. Following HMCS MONTREAL Trent’s career path focussed on combat systems
software development and support including periods of time spent performing submarine
combat system software maintenance with Fleet Software Support Center, CPF CCS maintenance
with Lockheed Martin Canada, and acting as a member of the Software Maintenance
and Review Team with Maritime Command. In the summer of 1999 he accepted a systems
engineering position with MacDonald Dettwiler’s Halifax Office. At MDA Trent was
involved with a number of projects, most involving system and software development
and integration. The majority of Trent’s time was spent as Technical Lead/Project
Engineer/Project Manager on projects involving the Ferret Small Arms Detection and
Localization System, a free-air acoustic system developed with DRDC ValCartier.
Over the course of seven years, Trent was primarily responsible for system design,
development, integration, test, and field trial support. In early 2005, 13 Ferret
systems were delivered to the Canadian Forces for use on Coyote Light Armoured Vehicles
in Afghanistan. In February of 2006 Trent took a new role as a systems engineer
at General Dynamics Halifax with the Systems Test Bed group working at DRDC Atlantic.
With that group he participated in the June 2006 BJ06 trial at CFMETR, implemented
STB interfaces to DASM and SSTD towed arrays, participated in the September 2006
CFAV Quest trial Q299, implemented an STB interface to the CPF Combat Control Software,
was a software lead for the torpedo defence project and provided support of the
DRDC Technical Insertion initiative through development and introduction of STB
system lifecycle support procedures and documentation. In August of 2008 Trent joined
JASCO as a systems and software engineer. His role with JASCO is to define and implement
our distributed real-time processing system for acoustic data processing.
