Hello, my name is Jon and I'm a dynamic, highly technical, hands-on Controls and Automation Engineer with a wealth of knowledge and experience in preventive maintenance, complex electro-mechanical tool programming/design, and excellence in manufacturing process development. I routinely install, configure, and customize new tools, software, and programs to meet business needs, goals, and objectives. I have demonstrated extensive success in preventive maintenance and reactive problem-solving to equipment/process issues. I drive down and virtually eliminate critical downtime for equipment across the organization. I strive to accurately program, customize, and troubleshoot new systems, tools, controls, and other equipment. I remain versatile and quickly adjust to fit new manufacturing specifications in support of shifting goals/objectives. I maintain in-depth knowledge and experience in OSHA regulations 29 CFR 1910 Subpart O and lockout/tagout systems 29 CFE 1910.147 related to automation safety regulations/machine safety regulations. I also design and implement robust manufacturing processes that incorporate automation, machine learning, and the latest available software, tools, and technologies.
