Experience

Designed components and sub-assemblies for existing and future aircraft and station.
Utilized 3D CAD, prototyping, materials knowledge, and GD&T standards to complete design reviews.
Successfully managed aircraft sub-assemblies from prototype phase through EVT/DVT/PVT.
Implemented part and assembly BOMs/file management using ECO releases in PLM software Arena.
Developed, designed, documented, and executed test methods and validation tests for safety critical parachute system.
Wrote instruction manuals and manufacturing assembly procedures to transition designs into production.
Lead root cause analysis and solution implementation for manufacturing, quality, and design issues. Worked with mechanical, electrical, ID, and supply chain team members to continuously improve.
Worked closely with contract manufactures and suppliers to initiate new tooling, products, and achieve stable production of mass produced parts. Established quality criteria for incoming goods and inspection.
Directed customer site evaluation system project which included mechanical, electrical, and software oversight and development.

Installed, calibrated, and repaired thermal lab instrumentation with minimal supervision. Resolved customer issues by debugging mechanical, electrical, and software malfunctions via diagnostic evaluation and customer input.
Trained customers on machine and software functionality, maintenance, and troubleshooting skills for specific instrumentation. Recommended method changes to optimize data collection procedures.
Directly responsible for prioritizing onsite arrival response based on urgency. Responsible for ordering machine component parts, maintaining equipment inventory levels, arranging travel plans, and allocating sufficient time per customer visit.
Provided excellent customer service and supported customers through the process of reducing downtime to increase overall productivity.

Assisted in the development of new products and supported existing products in the laboratory plastics division.
Helped to create and implement engineering test protocols and reports for testing parts.
Created metrology for Smartscope and CMM equipment – Helped develop xtures in Solid Works and programs in MeasureMind to accurately measure plastic parts, incorporating tolerance stack up.
Supported design analysis processes including Design Verication and Technical Reviews, checking the engineering inputs and testing capability of new products and processes.
Implemented time studies, created and completed learning time frame for parts to remain functional using dimensional, pressure and user simulation testing.
Benchmark tested existing products for performance, shelf life, and durability using various techniques.

Designed fixtures in Inventor to expedite the production process.
Worked with operators to come up with new ways to make their processes more efficient and ergonomic on the production floor.
Conducted process design validation experiments, analyzed issues that the devices were experiencing at various stages of production.
Worked with new projects, and predicted possible problems before production started.

Attracted potential customers by answering product and service questions, suggested information about other products and services.
Resolved technical problems by clarifying the customer’s complaint, determined the cause of the problem, and explained the best solution to the problem.
