Developed technologies for diesel, gasoline, LPG, and CNG fueled engines. Ensured clear technical communications internally and externally. Supplied two shifts of efficient test plans, and related support for technician and facility staff with minimal down time. Diesel focuses on BSFC and emissions. DOE development to support system evaluations and calibration optimization. Improved department efficiency and data quality by defining and documenting range finding procedures for tests with complex interactions. Facilitated the creation and modification of automated tests using PUMA software. Planned and executed ECE Non-Road certification involving LPG and CNG fuels on multiple platforms with passing results. Additional value delivered to the customer through unplanned calibration development and hardware troubleshooting without need for costly outside resources, travel, shipping, and additional project delays. Added value internally through approved project scope expansion, additional revenue, customer relations, creation of LPG/CNG facility setup guides and fuel line sizing calculators.

Plymouth, Mi

Vehicle and base engine calibration. Involved in projects that represent PFI, DI, turbo, naturally aspirated, high performance, and economy engines. Responsibilities in emissions, drivability, OBD, and base cal development in addition to the corresponding weekly and milestone progress reports regarding goals, timelines, and data. Notable contributions include: Identifying need for improved cam stability and implementing a test plan that also resulted in a better balance of key deliverables. Created macros to improve data validation for large DOEs, and identify conditions of injector min PW on cycle. Utilized fabrication skills to quickly create special hardware to improve consistency of fault insertion during development and official cert testing. Achieved customer's first US certification with no deficiencies.
