In this team we focused on meeting segment leaders discussing process issues and bringing in and managing innovative projects to solve supply chain issues. Focused on finding and testing cost effective reliable sensors for data collection to drive towards a goal of process integrated quality measurements to reduce requirements in off-line testing. Sensors worked on include typical PAT (pH, spectroscopy, conductivity probes, etc.) and camera feeds running trained computer vision models. Worked with potential vendors to evaluate their solutions to process issues and compare with alternative vendors. Evaluated vendors on their technical abilities and their business partnership potential. Maintained a safe working lab space in compliance with site EHS policies. Completed risk assessments on new project lab test setups. Multiple new technologies tested and moved to deployment while many others found unsuitable early saving wasted effort. Worked with internal and external stakeholders ensuring effective timely communication of project details. Lead projects implementing J&J FPX project management tools. Show less

Tyndall National Institute, Cork, Ireland

Working within the Life Sciences Interface group of Tyndall on the development of electrochemical sensors for use in pollution quantification directly in seawater. Analytes of interest include copper, phenols and lead. This work was undertaken as part of an EU wide collaboration between a number of private companies, universities and research centers. The aim was to produce a autonomous remote sensing platform to circumvent the need for expensive and time consuming laboratory analysis.
