• Designed and created proof of concepts for emerging mobile device technologies.• Worked with cross functional teams including electrical and industrial engineers as well as prototype and machine shops locally and overseas to create functioning prototypes.• Managed and/or performed CAE and physical part testing at the component level and system level.

• Design, integrate, and manage components ranging from injection molded plastics, stamped/machined metals, high definition camera modules, and plastic display modules utilized in state of the art mobile devices• Interface with mechanical, electrical, and antenna teams, to identify and resolve system-level design constraints.• Work with supply chain team, to drive manufacturing efficiencies and cost reduction.• Perform root cause analysis, propose and implement corrective actions for issues that occur during product development• Manage global suppliers to ensure part compliance with Motorola’s stringent quality specifications and optimize designs for part manufacturability and process capability• Monitor overseas production at internal factories and at suppliers to achieve the successful launch of six products• Implemented a redesigned SIM tray that reduced the unit cost by $2 per item. This resulted in a savings of >$2M over the life of the product.

• Designed machined and injection molded plastic parts for a working prototype phone• Interfaced with suppliers to acquire components for the working prototype phone• Created a rapid prototype mockup for phone’s main antenna testing, with inputs from radio frequency engineers, to mitigate design risks in an aggressive design schedule

• Designed/Developed (from cradle to grave) urethane automotive suspension and NVH (Noise Vibration Harshness) components as Tier 1 & 2 supplier for General Motors• Developed performance requirements and testing protocols for urethane automotive suspension components• Evaluated tested parts and generated reports for the customer• Worked very closely with sales, manufacturing and quality departments to manage tight timelines and produce high quality parts• Created QC requirements and pre-ship inspection protocols for production parts• Consistently maintained a net positive budget on development projects• Created/Updated 3D part models and engineering prints using Pro Engineer• Organized and led the engineering department in corporate wide safety initiative• Saved the manufacturing plant over $100K annually by improving the mold design• Awarded co-ownership of two US patents
