Create modification planning in CAPP to incorporate the Aerial Targeting Program (QF-16) using NX Unigraphics, and TeamCenter. Actively engage in the integration of the lessons learned during the modification of the F-16 aircraft and apply to the production aerial targeting program. Create new and revised tool orders to supplement the ease of installation of modifications. Create new tooling and modification planning for implementation on F-18 program.

Create detailed operation sequences in SOLUMINA for the MH-60R Helicopter Program. Software used-SAP, Team Center, Catia V5. I led a team of M.E.’s to evaluate all the production planning operations to ensure that the tooling called out matches the current build process. Work directly with the tool designers and Issue tool orders to correct any tooling issues and identify opportunities for improvements.

Create modification planning in MES to incorporate the E-2D Aerial Refueling program using NX, CATIA V5, Team Center, SOLUMINA and SAP. Actively engage in the integration of the lessons learned during the modification of existing aircraft and apply to the production aerial refueling program. Create new and existing planning for production to incorporate the aerial refueling program. I found ways to modify the existing tooling rather than create new tooling.

• Service Center M.E. on G650 Tiger Team for Completions and Retrofit. I work with all Gulfstream sites to provide M.E. support. I led a Continuous Improvement team to improve the way headliner panels are engineered, procured and installed. This new process saved Gulfstream $666,000. The team received an award.• Provide shop floor support with interpretation of the engineering Catia models for Retrofit and Modification and Final Phase for G650. Use Solumina to create and maintain electrical and mechanical planning orders and create planning for discrepant conditions. Use Catia V5 on a daily basis to provide measurements, overlays and any requirements the customer needs.• Create MRB disposition planning using SOLUMINA, SmarTeam, CATIA V5 and Gulfstream's Process Specifications and detail planning for special parts.
