o Led EU MDR programing updates for Accessories line for 60+ SKUs to comply with international standards by adding UDI identification and data matrices.o Lead for Kaizen resulting in lowering cycle times for highest runners in surgical drill attachment line by 49% (saving 492 hours per year)o Corrected, optimized vision related programming for laser marking for 100+ SKUs, clearing backlog of 12+ months of product.o Cleared $150k+ in built up product within Accessories MRB for laser related errors o Training members of R&D, Advance Operations in laser programming and design methodologyo Converting laser marking from Miyachi lasers to FOBA lasers for Power, Handpiece lines

o Led LEAN and Six Sigma initiative to standardize production of Periprosthetic, EVOS large frag trauma bone plate production Led team to standardize production of large frag trauma bone plate production expanding machine capacity utilization from 16k parts per year to potentially 29k parts per year Worked with planning department to modify how mixes per period are planned Currently 3 months ahead of schedule

o Led Laser Process Improvement Project for Laser Marking Operation Laser marking operation for 1500+ catalog numbers of trauma bone plates handling 16k trauma plates per year showed poor productivity due to multiple sources of issues across hardware, software, fixturing, and programming resulting in daily counts of orders on the laser problem rack reaching on average 86 orders ($825,600.00 in product). Efforts to improve and standardize the operation led to daily counts dropping to on average under 3 new orders per day on the laser problem rack. Production utilized multiple types of lasers with 80% of all lasers showing issues related to hardware. All lasers underwent root cause analysis to determine hardware issues then repaired, converted to standardized hardware, and calibrated resulting in consistent output and no hardware related issues appearing for over a year Worked with FOBA software engineers to design custom, networked software to replace outdated systems allowing for high level tracking for quality control and greater consistency of laser marking across all lasers via program management through standard WIP Lack of standardized processes led to the development of 47+ fixture sets being used in the laser marking operation with varying designs, sizes, and material types. Through standardization of programming and processes total fixture count was reduced to 4 sets lowering incorrect laser marking occurrences and reducing yearly crashes from 9 to 0 Updated program validation process to reduce lead time by 1 week while improving transparency and documentation with the quality team Created and documented via work instructions standardized processes for laser program creation and calibration allowing for easy and consistent training of laser program creation and the implementation of laser technicians into the production processo Validated new A51nx Makino Horizontal Mills for Production Completed 1 month ahead of schedule
