Led operational initiatives that would ultimately secure an opportunity with a new major OEM customer, and a production contract for over 50 new SKUs through a new product line. • Quoted and reverse engineered hundreds of components in order to come up with accurate assembly costing for the production contract. • Selected fabrication tooling suppliers and optimal tooling/assembly methodologies to stay within a ~$500k budget and a crucial go-live timeline.

ERP Power User and Product Data SME that facilitated the transition to an Epicor ERP System, as well as sales, purchasing, parts, and BOMs data behind 40,000+ parts. Led lean and cost-reduction initiatives.• Worked with production, sales, and senior leadership to understand their desired data/metrics and created dashboards to increase transparency of data over the organization.• Extracted and synthesized costing data to drive business decisions such as reducing inventory levels, changing component suppliers, and negotiating price increases with customers for products with low and negative profit margins.

Watch collector for over 10 years and specializes in vintage watches such as Omega, Rolex, Lecoultre, vintage Chronographs, Universal Geneve, and Tudor.

Created over 2,000 Engineering Masters across all product lines for Visual ERP upgrade and worked to maintain accurate ERP data such as BOMs, inventory numbers, and operation standards.• Processed Engineering Change Notices to update BOMs and part data along with R&D and Engineering Departments. • Facilitated inventory audits with supervisors, operators and management to ensure accurate ERP data.

Worked cross-functionally with IEs, Lean champions and production staff to improve data collection methods concerning downtime, defects, and other metrics used to increase production efficiency.• Oversaw a tiered meeting project for production shift changeovers from the project charter design, to implementation and completion. • Helped facilitate basic lean Kaizens on topics such as root cause analysis (Fishbone Diagrams, 5 Whys), 7 Wastes, bottlenecks, and process improvement for operators, managers, and office personnel.

Implemented an automated robot replacing the traditional selective annealing process and an automated Keyence machine for Inter-Process Checks. • Utilized Vickers Hardness testing, metallographic compressive mounting equipment and worked in materials testing lab to confirm machine capability. • Conducted time studies and value stream mapping for raw stock process.

Implemented Lean Visual Management tools such as production boards, continuous improvement boards and standardized signage throughout the processing center.• Collaborated with IEs from different districts to develop a Value Stream Map and A3 process improvement documentation of parcel operations.

Assisted RF Engineers with designing Distributed Antenna Systems for Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile. • Evaluated antenna propagation design with software such as MapInfo and iBwave. • Prepped design reports, Bill of Materials, quotes and summaries for C Squared, LLC clients.
