With a looming June 1, 2021 deadline for a complete documentation package, the lead System engineer required my expertise to finalize the documentation needed. My completion of key tasks allowed this goal to not only be met but achieved early. Key Contributions:• Created 3D models, drawings, and selecting materials for machined parts, weldments, sheet metal, and structural steel items.• Selecting connectors, wire, and other items for creating Cable BOMs and drawings.• Participating in regular status meetings to give project updates to the Lead System Engineer, Electrical Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, and fellow Mechanical Designers.

I collaborate with business leaders to plan and execute Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFM&A) principles, compile Bill of Materials (BOMs), and manage product lifecycle tools. A major portion of my activities involved researching and recommending components for electromechanical designs while supporting engineers and assemblers to streamline transmitter production. My team consistently followed FCC, TUV, NEC, and local electrical codes, ISO 9001, or military specifications. Two of my many contributions include:• Evolved 3D electromechanical designs into cost efficient production drawings and BOMs; finalized 12+ product designs consisting of hundreds of parts and assemblies and produced up to 650 units annually.• Inaugurated program to recycle preceding product parts to slash design time by 50%.

I applied my organizational, leadership, and change management skills to formulate mobile broadcast vehicles, flyaway systems, and production television and radio systems facilities. My team designed and fabricated brackets for antenna and camera housings with pan/tilt units attached to telescoping masts for mounting to vehicles. I also designed injection molded plastic front panels for rack mounted broadcast gear.• Administered project budgets totaling $10M annually; established and monitored schedules, tracked quality and profitability, and supervised four-member team of CAD drafters and designers to produce 100+ mobile units on time. • Formulated standard drawings for repeat component installation on mobile vehicles to save 30% of design time; designed 100+ vehicles and 24 facilities.
