Process Engineer with responsibility for analyzing, evaluating, and altering current and future production processes; as well as helping direct and manage process engineering team and development. Thorough documentation and escalation involving CI, quality, manufacturing, and design teams is very common. Ultimately involved in constructing and implementing Lean manufacturing principles; such as utilizing Job Element Sheets, Standard Work Instructions, LPA processes, Yamazumi charts, PFMEA, and continuous improvement. Use of these tools and principles allows our team to create structure and accountability throughout our various manual or logistical processes. Alongside assemblers, team leaders, technicians, and supervisors; we aim to streamline our production and eliminate wastes commonly found in industry. Overall scope of work centers on optimizing all current and future processes involved in the production of a Freightliner Custom Chassis. Common communication and breakdown of process improvements and alterations are required through utilization of production meetings, PE team meetings, production floor walks, training, and escalation strategies. Being the catalyst for reductions of cost, time, and complexity benefits both the customer, and the employee. Our team works diligently to maximize productivity and minimize waste.

Forest City, North Carolina, United States

Design/Project Engineer for KCH Surface Finishing & Engineered Systems. Worked as a designer and drafter of highly functioning custom processes/systems within air pollution, odor, and surface finishing industries. Using Solidworks, AutoCAD, and CAM softwares allowed me to produce the highest quality vessel/part sketches and technical engineering drawings for use in manufacturing and fabrication. The engineering drawings and G-code I developed were used to fabricate and manufacture custom industrial fume and odor ventilation systems. These systems involved: ventilation ducting (hoods/stacks/inlets/outlets), mist elimination vessels, fume scrubbing vessels, exhaust fan systems, push-air systems, and full-scale surface finishing lines. The surface finishing lines often involved various chemistries to be considered, thermodynamic properties, electrical/plumbing routing, DI systems, and all processes necessary for safe emission of fumes and liquids in a wide array of industrial applications.
