Display Mechanical Engineering Manager for MacBook, iMac, and Home product lines.

Responsible for mechanical design and integration of all MacBook displays.

Worked as design authority on the solar module manufacturing tools and led the development of 7 projects to improve throughput and processes - Developed process to use existing vision system to enable inspection and disposition of solder quality that achieved quality solder bonds to an accuracy of 99.99% - Improved tool safety during maintenance operations.

Used prototype development process for electronics box design of Main Power Interface Unit- Led design team of 10 engineers to develop new box design with focus on collaborative engineering and design for manufacturability.- Reduced manufacturing time from 3 months to 2 weeks and significant reduction in size and mass- Minimized parts, processes, and.

Oversaw multiple high precision mechanical/electro-optical components through product life-cycle - Integrated components into payload, ensuring program and customer requirements were satisfied - Developed subcontract that involved state-of-the-art encoder measurement device - Balanced technical performance, cost, and schedule

Worked in various departments as engineering co-op over multiple summers. Assignments included supervision of electronics assembly line, electronics box design, evaluation of new circuit board process, and student program activities in human resources.
