• Teamed with engineers, vendors, and contractors to design and manufacture custom tractor trailers for the natural gas industry• Suggested using a514 high tensile steel instead of standard a36 carbon steel to decrease overall weight and increase strength which was later implemented• Designed and performed stress analysis on parts within semi-trailer bogies• Identified design conflicts during manufacturing process and organized them into redesign reports• Communicated with superiors to track progress of projects• Conducted day-to-day tasks with other engineers (i.e. making work orders, ordering parts, and managing spreadsheets)
