Previous Company Names: United Power Corp. and Danaher Power Solutions.I rejoined T&B as a sub-contract engineer to support existing products from manufacturing to field related quality issues with low voltage electrical equipment such as power transformers, circuit breakers, panel boards, etc. Facilitated design and development of components for mechanical sub-systems including metal cabinets, bus work, frames, sheet metal, mounting brackets, wiring diagrams, physical structures and injection plastic tooled parts. Designs contain a mix of new fabrications and purchased parts. Worked closely with quality, field service/customers, and manufacturing to quickly solve problems pertaining to the product's quality, reliability, and manufacturability on custom orders being produced in addition to products in the field requiring engineering support.

At Quibica AMF, I was an engineering team member of the international sourcing project team to reduce part costs, with approx. savings of $540,000 annually. My focus was on redesigning domestically made parts into metric equivalents using internationally recognized materials for sourcing in China and India. I worked with international suppliers on quality issues, several engineering groups as a standard company process and lead a team to originate an Engineering Notice, Review, and Change (ECR & ECN) process for control of component and packaging requirements, part specifications, and alternate materials. I also reviewed defective/rejected parts for design changes to improve quality, fit, and function on future production lots.While at Qubica AMF, I developed uniform CAD and Documentation standards for use between finished good product revisions and new part/product implementations.
