Outline:Working as a design engineer for bespoke emergency lighting products and the design and manufacture of electrical test equipment. Responsible for all electrical production equipment breakdowns, annual PPM's and safety checks. Also MESH champion for electrical safety across the site.Key Responsibilities:* Create electrical designs for non standard emergency lighting products* Site responsible person for the safety of all electrical test equipment on site* MESH site champion for electrical safety* Design and construction of electrical test equipment* Design, build and implementation of safety circuits to reduce the risk to equipment operators* Investigate and repair shop floor breakdowns* Generate technical reports and production documents* Giving technical support to sales and quality departments

Outline:Working in a busy lighting design department at the Eaton Doncaster site with responsibility to test all new product designs to ensure they are fully compliant with the relevant British standards and electrical safety requirements and to give technical support to the production facility.Key Responsibilities:• Test all new product designs to ensure they meet electrical safety requirements and are fully compliant with the relevant British standards. Tests carried out include EMC, thermal and photometry.• Responsible for the final approval of electrical drawings for production • Test existing stock product to ensure ongoing product quality• Give technical support to production• Give technical support to the quality department for customer concerns• Design and implement new test equipment for both the design test labs and production lines• Writing functional test procedures for production and defining power limits for the functional testing• Manage workload of both myself and a technician working in the lab.• Ensure all test equipment is calibrated and maintain accurate records Key Achievements/Projects:• The design and introduction of a barcode traceability system such that every product leaving the production line was identified with a unique barcode and was fully traceable as to where and when it was manufactured and the tester who approved it. As well as giving full product traceability, the system is also used by production engineering for production line timings.• The introduction and ongoing support of power meters on every production line to ensure every product running down the production line was built correctly using the correct components. This was introduced following numerous customer complaints and has since eliminated the problem as all errors are now identified and corrected at the testing stage.

Key Responsibilities:• Design, build and implementation of Test Equipment to customer specifications • Writing software for test solutions using Visual basic and PIC assembler incorporating serial communication protocols such as I2C, RS232 and Dallas 1 wire• Writing and updating of in-house calibration and test procedures• Carry out and document electrical safety inspections of all test equipment• To design and build one-off printed circuit boards• Giving technical support to debug and maintenance technicians

Key Responsibilities:• Repair of breakdowns to all test equipment and in-circuit test machines • Responsibility for software backups on all test machines and equipment• To carry out a program of planned maintenance on all test equipment

Key Responsibilities:• Analysis and repair to component level of manufactured PCB’s including digital set top boxes, RF and microwave equipment and Automotive boards• Repairing breakdowns of functional test equipment• To attend daily meetings in a drive to improve product quality• The testing and approval of all anti-static mats and benches
