Engineer responsible for supporting our armed forces by leading and improving the design of a battery pack that was part of breathing systems devices (PAPR’s). I collaborated with team members to gather information, completed an in-depth study of the design, and redesigned the product to eliminate those issues. A design was previously in place that was not ideal and with my background in product design; I was responsible for making the parts easily manufacturable, pass testing, and mass producible.- Brainstormed and developed the best solutions for areas of concern on battery pack assembly- Create/develop 3D and 2D geometry for battery pack assembly- Perform tolerance stack-ups to guarantee fit and function of components- Reach out to suppliers for part feedback, quotation and lead times- Create and continue to develop Bill of Materials- Completed Lean Training and implemented lessons learned into current manufacturing assemblies- Worked with quality team to help understand and measure Quality Control dimensions on drawings
