Develop, document, and implement manufacturing methods needed to produce new products. Review engineering changes and take appropriate measures to ensure all product documentation for the affected operations (methods, BOM's, and test procedures) are updated to support the change prior to release of production.Analyze current processes and make appropriate changes to increase production speed and improve product quality while generating cost savings and free capacity for more product using current equipment.Liaison between programming and manufacturing.

Grand Prairie, Texas

Manage and direct Planning personnel in their delivery of planning, tool orders, problem resolution and continuous improvement to the various manufacturing, vendor, and support departments. Involved in the coordination of process improvement, CNC programming, Production Planning and tool and fixture design in a metal cutting and assembly environment.

Grand Prairie, Texas

Liaison Planning on the shop floor solving problems that occur during the machining and assembly processes to keep production going. Keeping inventory on perishable tooling and reordering tools as needed to prevent production stoppage. Convert Production Plans from Legacy Planning software to CAMS/SAP. Create planning for Tooling and Production parts using CAMS/SAP and Enovia.

Euless, Texas

Analyze part drawing to create production planning for work flow through the shop. Program 3 axis CNC Mills using Gibbs Cam software. Making edits to programs at machine to reduce run times and increase profitability. Nesting parts in material to get maximum utilization. Designed and helped implement a standardized grid pattern on CNC Mills to reduce setup times. Support manufacturing departments by resolving daily production problems. Defined problems and interfaced with necessary departments to ensure their immediate resolution as well as root cause analysis to prevent recurrence.

Set up machine shop from the ground floor machines, tooling, maintenance supplies & programming software. I was the only person in the shop for 4 months at that time I hired a machinist to run the machines while I ordered material and programmed the machines.

Grand Prairie, Texas

Programmed a Fadal using G-Zero software. Parts programmed were structural support bulkheadsand flat pattern sheet metal parts for brake press.

Set up 4 & 5 Axis CNC Mills. Programmed CNC machines using Gibbs Cam software. Developed Production part planning using Vantage software.

Set up and operate 4 & 5 Axis CNC machine tools to develop small, close tolerance, complex metallic components for production and R&D purposes. Read drawing and measured all parts using appropriate measuring equipment to hold tolerances of +/- .0002. Making edits at machine to reduce run time and improve part quality.

Euless, Texas

Supervised and coordinated activities of 30 to 40 team members involved in the manufacturing of machined parts including Operators and Maintenance Technicians. Designed and implemented quick change tooling for pallets that were interchangeable between machines. Developed Production part planning using Vantage software.
