I have been with PVA, a manufacturing robotics company since 8/2010. I started out as the only Production Support Engineer, in which I lead the communication between engineering and production on all projects. As I took on more responsibilities I was promoted to be the manager of the project engineers and CAD designers. In this role my main responsibility is to provide my team the tools to help manage their projects to keep them moving and on time. I have worked to decrease lead time of projects in engineering which helps efficiency. To do this I have used some principles of the Toyota Production System to help make our engineering department much more efficient. To this day I am still working on helping PVA's engineering department function more efficiently by decreasing lead times and improving design practices & procedures.
