Facilitate PFMEA sessions to proactively manage risks of new projects before scale-ups and ramps.

Silicon Valley, California, United States

Documented NPI assembly procedures and validated design readiness for Lean manufacturing of the world's most advanced semiconductor fabrication capital equipment. Used CAD-based Virtual Manufacturing techniques to prevent problems during first assembly of new designs. Persuaded cross-functional teams to incorporate Design for Manufacturability features early in product development cycle. Coordinated closely with High Volume Manufacturing stakeholders to transition manufacturing activities to Lean line prior to anticipated customer demand ramps. Developed and employed customized, automated design comparison tools to prevent NPI build problems well in advance of launch. Acted as company's final quality authority for Pilot-line Alpha and Beta builds before shipping to Lam's highest profile customers during critical business development opportunities. SAP ERP expert—trained new engineers and cross-functional teammates on best known methods for using central information system.

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Oh

Designed experiments to quantify the accuracy of a new method for performing supersonic wind tunnel velocity mapping. Gathered over 1 TB of data and employed advanced statistical analysis and data visualization methods using several custom, original software scripts to consolidate findings and share with national-level research organizations. Collaborated with Air Force Research Lab's most advanced modeling and simulation office to compare and validate findings. Co-authored international AIAA journal article; authored a US-only JANNAF journal article and presented to NASA and DoD at 2017 annual JANNAF conference.

Langley Air Force Base, Va

Evaluated capability gaps between fielded weapon systems and evolving threats to prioritize national-level R&D efforts. Advised executive-level leadership on investment strategies in speculative technologies.

Langley Air Force Base, Va

Optimized organizational control and situational awareness for the Combat Air Forces' Director of capability gap assessments and plans. Self-taught Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications to build enterprise information system from the ground up, enabling dashboard-style visibility for group leadership. Ensured on-time, high quality responses to Air Combat Command Headquarters inquiries and taskings on behalf of the Advanced Programs Management Office, improving senior leader decision quality.

Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar

Served as project manager for large-scale, realistic contingency exercises leading a matrixed team of over 80 professionals and involving over 3,000 base personnel. Gathered data on readiness for various scenarios including major accidents, terrorist attacks, and theater-wide escalations of hostilities. Presented findings and tailored recommendations to command staff to improve real-world readiness. Voluntarily tutored college-enrolled enlisted personnel on STEM academic subjects.

Tyndall Air Force Base, Fl

Assessed weapon performance of the United States' primary air-to-air missile by implementing RCCA using live-fire telemetry data gathered in realistic test events. Led a team of four engineers (indirect reports) and ensured quality, accuracy, timeliness, and standardization of data analysis. Optimized ATAC scripts to enable faster and more accurate investigations. Organized annual results (typical sample size based on over 100 firings each year) into key deliverables used by senior leaders in strategic decision-making involving major weapon systems.

El Segundo, Ca

Collected and analyzed data for experimental failure analysis of spacecraft electronic components. Published a company-internal paper on the impact of orbital thermal cycling on the mechanical strength of PCB solder joints.
