Performance Monitoring Team (Pmt), Pearl Harbor Hawaii

Reviewed and processed equipment data from the nuclear propulsion plant and associated electrical distribution systems of 22 pacific fleet submarines stationed in Pearl Harbor Hawaii to determine component failures and out-of-specification readings.Communicated both verbally and in writing with over 200 shipboard electricians to identify the causes of faults and the required corrective actions according to standardized operating procedures and maintenance standards.Managed an electrical division of 8 personnel as the Leading Petty Officer.Experienced US Navy certified Thermographer Level I that conducted thermal surveys of the electrical distribution equipment in the fleet using high resolution digital infrared cameras. Developed written thermal deficiency reports to include the problem description, analysis of the image and recommended corrective action. Certified as a US Navy Circuit Breaker Repair Technician that performed detailed inspections to submarine circuit breakers in to support scheduled maintenance and emergent repair of faulted components. Coordinated the sound and vibration analysis program for the submarine fleet stationed in Pearl Harbor to include data collection, on site training for the ship's force and coordination with the NAVSEA engineers who determined the analysis results. Executed frequent travel to support emergent repair fly away teams, off site training and after hours service calls in addition to normal office hours.Identified as a system expert by chain of command and was frequently called upon to write new maintenance procedures or improve existing ones.Personally responsible for a cost savings of over $3.4 million to the US Navy’s Submarine Fleet and was awarded 2 Navy Achievement medals for outstanding performance during this posting.
