As a design engineer I understand the effort and challenges in taking a product from concept to production. The success of well designed products can be life changing, but all too often great products and opportunities are missed due to inexperienced decisions with supplier choice and production. How often do we see well funded products on Kickstarter miss their promised delivery dates or fail to fill orders?The supply chain is what feeds the life and success of a company. It is key to lowering cost, increasing profit, and meeting customer satisfaction.At the same time, when not managed correctly, the supply chain can bring even the best ideas and products to a stop.Brydge will give you confidence in your supply chain by ensuring best cost, quality, on-time delivery, and risk protection, allowing you to focus on your company’s next steps.—Ben Stoddard, Founder

I have provided my employers with successful demonstrations, awarded proposals, executed programs, improved financial results, and a stronger reputation. Currently managing the engineering development (Hardware, Software, and ILS engineering) for multiple programs ranging from $500k to $25M in value. The direct technical point of contact to international customers including Preliminary Design Reviews (PDR), Critical Design Reviews (CDR), Training, Requirement Management, Managing Scope Creep, Contract Data Requirements List (CDRLs) delivery, Installation Support, and general Technical Support. Working with customer from Asia to Europe while managing US supply chain. Responsible for managing the teams and their budgets responsible for critical system develpment while ensuring all requirements are being met and tested.Working directly with Finance and Program Schedulers to create IMS and plan budget for EVMS program.Project Engineer on multiple proposals consisting of technical and cost volume responses.A project Engineer performs technical planning, system integration, verification and validation, cost and risk and supportability and effectiveness analyses for total systems. Analyses are performed at all levels of total system product to include: concept, design, fabrication, test, installation, operation, maintenance and disposal. Ensures the logical and systematic conversion of customer or product requirements into total systems solutions that acknowledge technical, schedule and cost constraints. Performs functional analysis, timeline analysis, detail trade studies, requirements allocation and interface definition studies to translate customer requirements into hardware and software specifications.

As a Systems Engineer, I am responsible for the life-cycle support of data link (wideband, narrowband and/or SATCOM) systems from conceptual development through product phase-out for international customers.
