• Coordinated with Suppliers and Local Labs/Compliance Agencies to certify product while complying with each country’s rules and regulations, often repeating the process to accommodate unexpected legislative changes.• Provided program managers with information regarding expiry of compliance certifications, ensuring sufficient lead time for them to make decisions regarding potential renewal. • Kept compliance database up to date to ensure timely response to requests for proof of certification.

Set up and managed day to day operation of the lab and coordinated activity related to the development and build of 98 prototypes.• Provided Facilities Department with directions for set up of new lab including air supply lines, electrical outlets, blackout curtains, and all other requirements team requirements with health and safety standards in mind to reduce potential for accidents and injuries.• Oversaw the purchase of all equipment and tools (ergonomic chairs, cabinets, toolboxes, optical table, oscilloscope, drills etc.) as well as tracking their location, availability and any maintenance or calibration required.• Employed 6S principles to ensure accessibility and functionality were key features of the lab design.• Conducted orientation and training for new co-ops on the project, ensuring they had the resources needed to accurately perform assigned tasks. Provided ongoing guidance and direction for implementation of parts changes.• Managed parts inventory flow from initial purchase order to all team requests, ensuring needed parts were always available for testing or modification as required. • Conducted inspection of incoming reworked parts to validate modifications.• Put processes into place to track part changes as well as progress through testing phases, updating all prototypes once changes approved.• Processed all paperwork for inventory movement to track location and availability of every part needed to build 98 prototypes and kept up with frequent design changes and rework. • Managed all aspects of pilot run from scheduling of unionized workers, kitting of parts and modification of process instructions through to final production approval.

• Performed optical alignment of light engines in a class 1000 clean room in order to prevent shadows, poor focus or inferior image quality. • Built and tested various models of projectors according to approved processes. • Measured light output to screen as part of first pass yield testing, recording results in product database to facilitate future root cause analysis and product history tracking. • Provided feedback on process instructions for new models and modifications of current models, increasing overall efficiency and accuracy of the build during the pilot run process.

• Checked cells, troubleshooting and making necessary adjustments to ensure ongoing safety of staff and equipment in compliance with Health and Safety Standards. Completed and recorded safety checks at the beginning of every shift.• Monitored ABB & Nachi robots, troubleshooting to assess and resolve issues, conduct repairs or realign the sensors to ensure optimal performance and avoid production downtime in a JIT environment.• Patched systems when necessary to keep lines up and running until parts were available and/or proper repairs could be performed. Kept team lead advised of status of repairs. • Rotated through every zone to maintain familiarity with all equipment and cells, learning everything needed to keep the lines functioning properly and meet product quality standards.• Performed routine preventative maintenance such as grease changes, filing or changing weld tips to ensure solid welds exceeded minimum standards. Preformed quality checks of welds regularly.• Set up cells for new model implementation with all required equipment, drilling and anchoring them to the floor and ensuring all safety lockouts were in place to prevent accidents or injuries. • Coached and trained staff on Kaizen and 5S methods to eliminate waste and improve consistency of labeling and storing of tools and equipment, improving efficiency of the work environment and positively impacting overall productivity.• Tested water regularly, adjusting sodium levels to meet equipment requirements and updating maintenance records.

• Used electrical drawings to plan layouts and perform panel wiring for robotic system integration. • Performed mechanical assembly of cells using CAD drawings.• Maintained and program recalibration of various makes of robots to achieve optimal performance
