Managed several technical aspects of projects including Software Development, Documentation, Risk Analysis and machine safeguarding.Met regularly with customers to determine the machine communication standards for each project. I used my knowledge and experience to make recommendations that benefited the project from the customer and companies' perspective.Standardized the technical documentation format and development schedule into a system that is still used. Project machine communication standards are now determined months earlier and with far fewer revisions owing to this process.Participated in weekly / daily software meetings to provide updates and direction to the software team regarding system and customer requirements.Lead the Risk Analysis process for each project. I collaborated with other departments in organized meetings to determine system risks, mitigation strategies and residual risks after safeguarding. Spent a moderate amount of time on site in a supervisory capacity. I attended on-site customer meetings to provide updates and requirements. I recognized changing situations on-site and modified the direction of the team to maintain progress in several instances.
