Used Creo to create custom-designed CAD models for chassis including positioning components and assembly documentation. Assembled switches, amplifiers, couplers, control boards, power supplies, hardware, and fasteners, and read wire diagrams. Collaborated with suppliers and integrators, and worked on aerospace and defense products following ITAR government regulations. • Designed semi-rigid cables and sheet metal parts to support internal components and connections, and designed layout of switch matrices to support serviceability. • Created assembly drawings including BOMs, and assembled electronics and components in chasses in alignment with ESD standards. Managed files and documents.

Reviewed Production Part Approval Process (PPAPs) for company and supplier-produced parts to confirm compliance with industry requirements and ITAR government regulations. Evaluated material documentation on parts to confirm ISO and Pressure Equipment Directive/Atmosphere Explosive (PED/ATEX) requirements were met. Wrote Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) including visual information on parts that failed to meet quality standards. Worked with multi-functional teams on products and testing. Reviewed drawings, part submission warrants, purchase order, first article inspections, process change notification, Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (PFMEA), visuals, capability studies, and control plans. Inspected with calibrations and equipment. Confirmed products were packaged correctly by suppliers by following a checklist. Worked with Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerances (GD&T) ASME Y14.5 on drawings. Applied Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) standards when reviewing electronic parts. Worked with buyers, shipping, receiving, and inventory on the production floor.• Pinpointed areas for supplier product improvements by developing metrics system in spreadsheet software that collected and organized data on parts received listing each supplier’s priority issues and first pass yields.• Advanced processing of 1000 material certificates / year by writing work instructions on process for reviewing material certificates including tasks, images, and process flow diagrams. • Wrote work instructions on reviewing material certificates. This included tasks, images, and process flow diagrams. Over 1000 material certificates went through per year.

Reviewed circuit board drawings with conformal coatings that were outsourced to Poland for production including updating electrical drawings and BOMs for suppliers. Used WISE (similar to SAP) to maintain work orders, planning summary, inventory, and sales orders on tracker documents. Sent waivers and quality plans to the supplier in Poland.• Managed AutoCAD layout for Production in new manufacturing facility to optimize space and line speed.• Protected components during conformal coating by designing circuit board covers using Pro-Engineer/Creo.

Made engineer change orders by verifying issues and validating changes. Researched history on designs and failures to include in the reports. Created drawings, parts, and isometric assemblies in SolidWorks, and worked on AutoCAD drawings converted to Solidworks. Maintained BOM’s and components in SAP. Designed tools to assemble Ion grid assemblies. Inspected with hand tools, gauges, and surface plates. Managed files, documents, records, and data during engineer changes.• Created work instructions for manufacturing.

Worked on the manufacturing floor with teams assembling the drive train into the nacelle bodyframe. Installed 10 drive trains per week.• Lean Manufacturing and 5S.

Designed components for flow meters and test systems. Used SolidWorks for designing parts and their drawings.

Revised drawing of a mounting plate on AutoCAD

Designed tools for manufacturing wind turbines costing over $5 million each. • Drew layout of production floor that managed space and increased production line speed. This made it possible to test three nacelles at the same time.

Involved in networking groups. Held temporary positions through networking.

Mechanical Design Engineer working on high speed robots and downstream automation systems for plastics injection moldings. Used Pro/E software developing mechanical sub assemblies and detailed drawings, creating and editing. Worked on mechanical engineering projects, conveyor belts and roller assemblies. Worked “hands-on” in assembling manufactured designed parts. Worked with different manufacturing materials in development; steel, aluminum, composite material and plastic. Wrote work orders on projects and bills of materials. Wrote work orders and bills of materials on projects. Created part numbers and assembly numbers for designs. Involved in design review meetings, and working with teams. Received Engineering change requests (ECN/ECR) on designs; redesigning parts and fixing problems on site.

Involved in development of engineering components required for railcar projects valued at $4 million. Created new solutions that required design improvements. Designed parts and did detailed drawings along with assembly drawings on CAD. Wrote work orders, bills of materials and bill of process’s on projects. Kept an update on the manufacturing of the railcars by taking pictures of their development. Drew the railcar building on CAD for future expansion plans.

Worked on a Brake Friction Dynamometer design project my Senior year in college. Designed an enclosure for the router and caliper with air flow. Sensors were around the rotor and in the enclosed box to record readings of the temperature, rpm, and air flow. Results would be applied to the CSU race car. I was on a $1000 budget for this project. I worked with a team including a grad student who focused on Labview for the sensors.
