Design and development of new electric vehicles in a cutting edge startup environment with a focus on chassis engineering.Designed complex front and rear subframes from the ground-up and performed structural (FEA) analysis to validate.Worked on suspension bushings, control arms, knuckles, ball joints, electric motor mount systems, and structural components, plus performed bolted joint analysis.Extensively used Siemens NX, NX FEA Simulation (Nastran), and TeamCenter.

Performed new product design, upgrades, and maintenance of new and existing chemical dosing and dispensing equipment; creating 3D models, drawings, BOMs, and technical documentation.Engineered injection molded plastic components for use in challenging environmental conditions.Extensively used SolidWorks and PDM.

• Performed detailed engineering, design, system integration, and manufacture of large bearing and propulsion shaft systems for existing and future submarine classes.• Proficient user of SolidWorks, SolidWorks Simulation, and Finite Element Method Magnetics (FEMM).• Conduct structural stress and electromagnetic Finite Element Analysis (FEA) studies to evaluate, enhance, and optimize component designs.• Evaluate part tolerances and fitments using Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) tolerance stack up; approve manufacturing, assembly, BOM, welding, and procurement drawings.

• Engaged in the specification, design, manufacture, test, integration, and procurement of next generation submarine turbine-generators, including the bearing system, the speed governor electro-mechanical steam throttling valve system, and the control cabinet assembly.• Developed detailed technical recommendations and successfully pitched solutions to Navy and Naval Laboratory stakeholders.• Conducted vendor management duties including Statement of Work (SOW) preparation, supplier down-select trade study, contract placement support, and schedule evaluation for a multi-million dollar contract.

• Worked on testing and troubleshooting of prototype elevators ranging from controller performance in extreme temperature environments to elevator cable system performance.• Devised an innovative method to drastically decrease measurement error when testing elevator cable slip which was implemented in future test procedures.• Designed and constructed a prototype test fixture to safely measure overspeed protection device trip speed.

• Worked extensively with Autodesk Inventor software to generate parts libraries utilized for the assembly of position/motion control of hoist systems and power distribution equipment.
