• Saved $225,000 per year (1,500 man-hours per year) by automating production datasheet used for oscilloscope traces of flow controls through VBA code. • Redesigned body and end nut of cryogenic, pneumatic-actuated flow control valve to be used on Blue Origin New Glenn rocket. Focused on redesigning 9 identified pressure vessels after line fluid pressure was changed to be 11x higher. Increased FOS of 5 pressure vessels (was below 1.0) to maintain a conservative FOS (2.0+). Confirmed math calculations through FEA analysis.•Designed and created drawings for tooling fixtures to be used in the production process.•Wrote detailed assembly procedures for flow controls.•Tested to validate polarity switch test boxes in production cell as part of a corrective action.

• Redesigned industrial furnace parts through CAD (Solidworks) and switched vendors to achieve 10-1 cost reduction for critical components.• Performed temperature calibrations on reactors, breach checks using helium detectors, pyrometer alignments, and replacement of reactor bubblers while monitoring gas flow in reactor lines, pressure controllers, gas valves, mass flow controllers, and pump purges.• Responsible for loading/unloading MOCVD reactor runs in fab with ISO 6 cleanroom classification.

• Orchestrated the improvement of the company’s optoplates by designing 12 custom variations of 96-well microwell grids through CAD (Solidworks) which increased the light intensity of the optogenetic experiment by 55% compared to previous designs.• Reduced the cost of the production of grids by instituting additive manufacturing (SLA) and minimizing the amount of material necessary in design by 19%.
