• Opened new strategic business opportunities that resulted in 100% profit margin growth by implementing advanced 3D design tools that showcased expanded company resources and technical capabilities.• Proven leadership skills that fostered a newly assembled design team comprised of mostly new graduates to support the company’s aggressive sales growth in new and current markets resulting in a greater market capture.• Production cost savings realized through labor hour and material waste reductions due to 3D drawing accuracy and speed.• Significantly improved document control efficiency through the implementation and administration of the PDM vault system resulting in improved design time through the ability to share design data between projects and automated drawing releases.• Successful implementation and support of the company’s quality assurance program through revision control and material tractability records resulted in the successful answering of a potential high profile client’s quality process inquiry.

• Broadened company product portfolio offerings while reducing the actual number of product lines through lean design concepts.• Empowered and mentored an international team of engineers and designers to not just design products but to lead and manage projects resulting in the ability to manufacture product in multiple countries.• Achieved unrealized efficiencies by administrating over a worldwide PDM vault and SolidWorks license server that allowed engineering and design tasks to happen around the clock.• $50,000 cost savings realized through engineering universal base frames and enclosures.• Reduced production assembly time with a significant design for assembly effort on unit enclosures that eliminated fit up issues.

• Cost savings per oxygen compressor unit achieved through redesign effort resulting in simplified assembly with fewer components.• Significant design improvement to orbital scroll compressor by incorporating a more energy efficient direct couple to motor• Key contributor during the AutoDesk vault implementation resulting in shortening design turnaround times.

• Achieved a market competitive GPU product as a result of a cost effective design for manufacture/assembly with lean design principles.• Implemented 3D design utilizing AutoDesk Inventor.
