Samantha Rogers Email and Phone Number

- Commercial Sensing Subsystems Team Lead

- Python Data Science Lead for high-impact, direct customer support and solution programs - Developing and leveraging infrastructure allowing for rapid processing of billions of datapoints - Conducting root cause analysis to understand production issues combining disparate data and sources - Communicating with and presenting to Program Chief Engineers about findings, results, and solutions- Mentoring and collaborating with fellow engineers for task distribution and timely delivery of results

- Solution Architect for highly complex R&D pilot plant automation platform- worked closely with pilot plant personnel to translate needed functionality to project requirements- interfaced with directly with automation platform vendors to tailor solution design to meet requirements- collaborated with other groups in the company to prepare our existing network infrastructure for the upcoming upgrade

- created and implemented an enterprise antivirus management application during the company network migration off of the old, existing network- analyzed the existing efficiency reporting system for root cause identification and improvement suggestion- converted the efficiency reports to Power BI for better visual representation and big data analysis- compared, updated, and upgraded PLC and HMI programs to migrate from legacy versions and architectures and increase support for troubleshooting diagnostics- assisted in the administration of Windows-based FactoryTalk Metrics server systems across the globe - collaborated in the creation of new network architectures

- supervised, organized, and optimized available talent for improved employee attendance and morale- worked to increase efficiency in the workplace and minimize the necessary people and time to complete tasks, which enhanced our ability to operate effectively

- built, wired, and programmed a 15 cubic foot control panel for the new production line being added to full production In Fall 2018- learned diagnostic practices, along with the programming and inner components of production control panels- helped launch the first Zero Defect Initiative on a safety product to ensure highest quality to our customers- gained my certification as a Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt as well

- developed a corporate-wide 5S safety training and a line balancing simulation, which increased the overall knowledge of lean concepts further across the company- measured machine and operator cycle times to demonstrate a need for and a benefit from our continuous improvement kaizen events- conducted multiple glue trials to test for adhesion and cleanliness and to improve performance while finding the cleanest, strongest, and most durable glue at the lowest cost- analyzed data outputs from machine downtime reports along with robot movements and delays to identify the root cause of problems and launch new standardized practices to maximize cycle times- ultimately saved the company $70,000 annually, reassigned three employees to meet shipment dates and opened machine capacity by 15%

- developed, trialed, and assembled a corporate-wide lean introduction training for new employees- worked to standardized safety and labeling practices within the plant, with the goal to homogenize labeling among all plants within the company in the future- calculated time and monetary savings for completed projects to publish to the corporate wide knowledge base for information sharing purposes
