• Planned delivery for revenue operation, as WPO for Thales CBTC Wayside Hardware subsystem within Ottawa LRT, and currently working on the Ottawa East-West Extension Project. • Managed a team of 4-5 hardware designers to develop or enhance HW designs and documents while achieving project requirements with respect to cost, schedule, scope and quality.• Tracked progress on all assigned technical and non-technical tasks, and delivered weekly and monthly status reports to managers and directors. • Provided accurate estimates of labor and material cost for current technology on Bids such as Ottawa West East Confederation Line, Ottawa Trillium Line, San Francisco BART TCMP, Finch West LRT, and NYCT Culver Line. • Interpreted, identified, and documented hardware requirements such that customer needs are met within the budget and schedule constraints. • Continued to work on Intermediate Hardware Design tasks listed in the next section.

• Designed and updated hardware interfaces between the equipment rooms and trackside signaling equipment while following AREMA guidelines.• Prepared electrical schematics and design documents using signaling design principles.• Generated BOMs, schematics, mechanical drawings, layouts, fabrication and assembly drawings. • Optimized equipment variants to minimize design and material costs.• Provided instructions for unit testing of hardware subsystems in the field. • Proactively responded to customer queries on wayside signaling hardware design.• Developed cost and time estimates for new and proposed activities, including assessment of foreseeable risks.• Used DOORS software to interpret, identify, and document HW requirements such that customer needs are met within the budget and schedule constraints.• Used SAP software to view BOMs, check “where used items”, and view inventory for project needs.

• Designed and improved drawings and layouts for PTC systems, taking into account the FRA rules and regulations to insure the critical safety of the passengers and operators. • Traveled to customer site to gather and analyze field test data using Siemens PHW simulator.• Troubleshot issues and problems identified during factory and field testing, offering possible technical solutions to minimize impact and solve the issues. • Programmed and troubleshot Excel macros (VBA) to capture and decode hex messages and tabulate them into useful information. • Mentored and trained employees to efficiently and effectively complete assigned work related to projects. • Provided technical input and documentation as needed per assigned procedure and activity being performed.

• Performed on location assessment of the lighting systems and electric water heating systems being used by small businesses.• Determined opportunities to retrofit small businesses with energy efficient technologies• Calculated and reviewed energy and cost savings for eligible upgrades to small businesses.

• Assembled and tested “Radio Isotope Identification Devices” according to electrical and mechanical drawings and procedures which resulted in a high quality product.• Assisted in updating test procedures which increased the accuracy of the detection units.• Performed testing and troubleshooting of circuit boards to ensure product specifications.• Repaired and calibrated damaged units to be reshipped to customers. This extensively utilized my trouble-shooting techniques.
