• Responsible for creating customer bespoke vacuum chamber drawings and all documentation required to accompany the job, this includes BOMs and routings. Chamber details are provided by the customer and are processed based on the level of attention required. Chambers that require new drawings will be sent to customers for approval and will have all feedback incorporated into the designs until final approval and sign off is gained.• Preparing customer quotes for non-standard parts. I will look through all customer requirements outlined in their RFQ and fill out a predesigned quote sheet with all material and time requirements, this includes both machine and person hours. Specific drawings may be created based on the customer requirements, these would include water cut plates or other bespoke subcontract components. I would speak directly to suppliers for costing. • Lead responsibility for billing and routing non-standard customer orders. Using the customer quote, I will create a bill of material and routing on the company management system Sage 200. Drawings will be created based on requirements, either top level part or subcomponents such as water cut plates and brackets. • Created 3D photo renders of parts and assemblies for use on company websites and catalogues. I received Solidworks Visualize Standard training.• Redesign and rebrand of company drawing templates in accordance with BS 8888 and keeping in line with company tolerance requirements.

The Pump fitter / utility support role covered multiple areas of the manufacturing and production team offering support within Goods in, Stores, Fitting, Test, Pack and Dispatch. Qualified in crane operations, pallet stacking and manual handling• Goods in – Offered support by assisting with the receipt of goods from various suppliers and sources, this requires checking received quantities, labelling components and store in allocated locations. Processing the works order and receipts through the company management system JD Edwards.• Stores – Picking kits for pump builds and processing the kit through JDE and RF Smart. Label engraving is required when picking kits. Annual stock to taken within 1 morning verifying stock levels and noting discrepancies.• Pump Fitting – Required to build and assemble all ranges of pumps, this included using cranes to move larger builds and components. Surface finish improvements are required for specific jobs followed by finish testing. This required the use of multiple tools such as, fila gauge, micrometer and depth micrometer.• Test ¬– Testing of all pumps builds dependant on their criteria based on flow produced while under varying pressure requirements. Additional tests such as hydrostatic tests can be requested for after initial testing. Finishing pumps requires draining of test oils and applying stickers for specific ranges. Shaft orientation is change before the pump is passed to despatch.• Pack & Despatch – Supported by boxing pallets using crocodile boxes and clips. Final banding and strapping added. Any shipping labels or driver instructions added displaying centre of gravity and other information.

• Responsible for the entry of bill of materials and motorized general arrangements. Production support including tooling, fixturing, and restructuring procedures, within this I redesigned and streamlined the process for documenting drawing changes and updates. The response time for engineering processes reduced from over a month to less than seven days.• Involved in a larger group project aimed to prove an overhaul of the current manufacturing methods to build bulk order pumps would significantly improve. We increased the output factor of three by using assembly cells.• Redesign of rotor wing profile following customer complaints of excessive cavitation and noise. This required FEA analysis to ensure the strength of the design up to 31bar. Testing and manufacture of prototypes for result comparison.• Regularly dealt with suppliers including site visits to help understand manufacturing issues and liaise with the relevant people to remove roadblocks. I found alternative suppliers when existing ones became unable to fulfil supply demands, checking for quality and reliability before committing to manufacture.• Organized and managed company involvement in the Young Engineers Challenge, designing models and packs for children aged 8-11 making sure all objectives were suitable for their age group. I was required to explain complicated concepts to children unfamiliar with technical terms and maintain both interest and engagement.
