As a materials engineer, I supported multiple defense acquisition programs at NSWC Crane in the Failure and Materials Analysis Lab in the Strategic Microelectronics Division of the Global Deterrence and Defense Department. - Implemented parts, materials, and processes program program plans which ensure compliance of microelectronics assemblies with military and commercial standards- Utilized a broad set of materials characterization tools to ensure the physical reliability of microelectronics assembles and conformity to manufacturing specifications and standards- Developed testing capabilities with internal collaborators for emerging technologies such as photonic integrated circuits
