Develop telemetry solutions for material handling equipment with solutions spanning 70+ models from motorized pallet jacks to large container handling trucks. Engage in project management, software/hardware development, supplier management and solving field issues. Conduct in-house testing, and assign testing to key stakeholders. Manage the performance of one software engineer and oversee third-party resources, including an external design group in India, providing supervision of two staff while managing the workflow of the main telemetry supplier.Engage in project management for new products, including development and sustaining existing platforms by bringing options along with new products in development.Align development initiatives, resolve field issues, identify solutions for customers requiring different feature sets not currently offered, and create product requirement documents and validation plans. Utilize ECN processes to release new products and maintain the existing product structure, resolve second-tier telemetry field issues, and work with primary suppliers to develop new features for existing products.Deploy plant programming tools and firmware to global factories on a bi-annual basis, create detailed drawings for hardware in Creo, and approve design work from external resources. Developed a product to replace the existing platform with a solution providing a $200 cost savings per solution (15%). Played a key role in increasing the run rate for product in the factories by approximately 8K units per year.Promoted the opportunity for the sales team to have telemetry options available on the customer-facing website used to configure trucks, allowing more initial production in the factory rather than aftermarket.
