HARVEST PRODUCTS-------------------------Significant experience in harvest related products. Early in Ag Leader focused significantly on design improvements to mass flow sensing technology. Coordinated significant grain harvest testing project that involved various methods of data collection for the evaluation and development of the combine mass flow sensor.-Replicated the existing yield monitor calibration that ran in the Ag Leader display in Matlab by reading through the existing C++ code and creating equivalent Matlab algorithm. Used Matlab version to design and rapidly test potential calibration improvements using data collected during previously mentioned harvest testing. Documented preferred calibration improvements to be implemented into display code. Improved calibration implemented across Ag Leader displays in 2017.-Primary engineering contact with OEM customers for harvest products.STEERING PRODUCTS----------------On design team that produced the SteadySteer assisted steering product. Heavy focus on evaluating and testing the motor and other wear components. Built an automated test stand that atomically ran repeated test sequences for wear and durability evaluation. Allowed person performing the test to adjust torque required to turn the steering wheel and other test parameters easily through a touch screen display.-Worked with suppliers for design, tolerancing, and DFM on injection molded components, die-cast aluminum parts, and motor.

-Research assistant under Dr. Matt Darr-Designed and executed test plans for combine research-Built a test stand that allowed for the evaluation of combine mass flow sensors-Member of harvest team responsible for the harvest of several Iowa State University fields-Participated in projects focused on product develop for industry partners-Research focused on the affect of different harvesting conditions on sensor signal for what is now John Deere ActiveYield. Research used to determine number of sensors and best locations to place them.

-Involved in various levels of testing of Self-Propelled Windrowers-Operated equipment during harvest season while carrying out test procedures and monitoring equipment status-Installed, operated, and provided engineering feedback on prototype machinery -Provided daily reports and documentation of field testing for engineering department-Coordinated testing plans with cooperators
