Currently working with a test and evaluation group alongside a multi-discipline team of engineers. My responsibilities fall within the design, development, planning, and execution of rocket sled ground testing. Specifically, for weapon systems, flight environment, and flight hardware. My main objective is to design instrumentation pallets and oversea the entire build up from start to finish. Instrumentation pallet designs are implemented using hardware and sensors like data acquisition systems (DAS), accelerometers, strain gauges, heat flux gauges, thermocouples, pressure transducers, and many more. Proficient in using DAS and DAS software to collect sensor data for monitoring, recording, evaluating, and reporting test results. Familiar with circuit board design to be utilized for boosting signals into DAS as well as for power control boards to power all instrumentation hardware on the pallet. Developed electrical schematic drawings using Visio. Drawing packages include power distribution and control, hardware layout, track side connections, bill of materials (BOMs), and DAS channel connections. Performed electrical load analyses to ensure hardware power requirements were being met. Knowledge of telemetry for wireless data transferring using Quasonix, transmitter, encoder, and receiver. Calculated bandwidth for data transferring limitations. Experience using Inter-range instrumentation group (IRIG) timecode integrated with GPS to transfer timing information. Working knowledge of Weibel radars to capture speed and sled trajectory down the track. I possess excellent written, oral, and professional communication skills by successfully working with my peers. Experienced developing technical documentation such as schedules, cost estimates (ROM), concept feasibility review (CFR), TDR’s, Annex B’s, operation manuals, and factory acceptance test plans.

Experienced engineer with over 8 years of DOE & DOD experience. Worked for a Process Automation and Controls group at Los Alamos National Laboratory alongside a multi-discipline team of engineers in the research and development process. My responsibilities fell within the planning, design, development, installation and maintaining of processing systems specializing in nuclear and non-nuclear applications. I specialized (SME) in multiple control systems involving Plutonium pit production & radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) manufacturing at LANL’s Plutonium Facilities (PF-4). Reverse engineering systems containing Allen Bradley legacy hardware and software and improving to ControlLogix/CompactLogix for more functionality and capabilities. Implementing EtherNet/IP for faster data transmission and communication. Performed calculations and electrical analysis for signals and power, corresponding to R&D equipment. Comprehension of NEC and NFPA-70 electrical codes and safety principles I have executed implementation of touch safe components, short circuit protection, and proper grounding in my design. Incorporating instruments such as thermocouples, power supplies, flowmeters, pressure transmitters, valves, PID furnace control, and interlocks. I have multiple years of experience in developing electrical schematic design packages using AutoCAD Electrical. Drawing packages include, power distribution, custom enclosure layout design, bill of materials (BOMs), digital and analog signal connections for PLC I/O modules. In addition, I utilize a variety of handheld tools such as fluke multimeters, signal (4mA-20mA) simulator, and temperature simulator for testing, debugging, and troubleshooting purposes. I possess excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal skills by successfully working with peers and developing technical documentation for hardware & software such as Software Quality Assurance documents, requirement documents, factory acceptance test plans, etc.
