-- Support the manufacturing of Made to Order jerseys for the Fanatics brand by developing and executing plans to reduce defect rate, continuously improve manufacturing efficiency, and promote standardization within the processes of the building.o Acted as Project Manager to launch made to order manufacturing in one of our fulfillment centers to help expand the made to order business while reducing overall delivery time for customers.o Designed floorplan layouts of new and future MTO facilities to maximize flow while allowing for expansion opportunities as the business grows.o Worked alongside software engineers to develop new tools within Warehouse Management System giving better visibility of current inventory and wrote algorithm to determine minimum, maximum, & replenishment values to determine how much inventory should be on the floor at any given time.o Created an automated damage report that reduced time spent by operations leaders investigating garment damages from 1 hour per shift to 5 minutes per shift and giving the leaders the capability to look at damage rate statistics in real time. This allowed leaders to make corrections on the day the damages were occurring reducing overall damage rate by 40%.o Led project to install flow racking system and developed process that increased picking rate of highest volume items by 50%o Mentored Industrial Engineering Co-ops at MTO facilities and acted as a consistent engineering presence remotely to progress engineering projects as the co-ops rotated between terms.

- Support the manufacturing of ACUVUE® brand contact lenses by developing and executing plans to continuously improve the product quality, optimize line efficiency, and reduce manufacturing costs.o Led project to redesign monomer cart resulting in a cost savings of approximately $500,000 per year.Led project to convert manufacturing lines to run new surfactant in order to reduce material costs and improve lens yield.o Led stability study to qualify new material to bring a new contact lens to market.o Developed a new method of qualifying and quantifying anomalies within contact lenses.Initiated and led project to reduce cycle time on the manufacturing lines that improved overall yield by >5%.o Wrote validation protocol for the installation of a new cell on one of the manufacturing lines.o Contributed to long term project to qualify new lid stock foil to improve overall sealing capabilities. o Designed and executed experiments for material characterization.o Contributed to long term project to qualify new injection molded plastic for use in the creation of contact lenses resulting in reduced injection molding cycle times.o Identified and resolved issues on manufacturing lines that reduced zone downtime by 17% and increased lens production by 4,000 lenses per shift.

- Responsible for functional testing and inspection of R&D robotic arm in an FDA regulated environment and ensuring documentation adheres to the ISO 9001 Quality Management System standards across multiple teams.o Wrote protocols to perform testing on screws to determine failure modes and viability in the field.o Wrote and executed First Article Inspection (FAI) report to test new product for validation.o Updated work instructions and SOPs that were inconsistent with current methods. o Assisted in the preparation of Quality Management System to transition from EU’s Medical Device Directive (MDD) to Medical Device Regulation (MDR) in 2020.

- Served as a designated safety and onsite medical representative for the launch of the new JAX5 location coordinating and implementing all areas of the Amazon Global Safety Programo Conducted risk assessments related to jobs performed (Job Hazard Analysis) and new equipment introductions. Recommended appropriate risk mitigation measures to management, including ergonomic considerations, in all such efforts. o Facilitated incident investigation process including root cause analysis. Maintained accurate daily, weekly, and monthly metrics reporting to onsite management teams and corporate based reporting systems. o Wrote technical document to create and develop process that removed packing envelopes off of conveyors ultimately increasing production by 15% and reducing injuries by 20%. o Wrote technical document to alter Powered Industrial Truck lanes that virtually eliminated all PIT/pedestrian interactions while increasing building storage capacity by 60%. o Responsible for proper hazardous and non-hazardous waste management from cradle to grave. o Worked with facilities team to ensure the timely completion of safety related maintenance and projects. o Interviewed, hired, trained, and mentored temporary onsite medical representatives to prepare them for peak season and ultimately transition to full time.

- Contributed on a developmental program to bring a brand new lens to market.o Measured plastic lenses on a micro scale using an array of analysis tools.o Developed new methods of measuring lenses for greater dimension accuracy and precision. o Designed and implemented experiments to analyze and reduce internal stress within plastic lenses. o Characterized new materials to determine feasibility for use as plastic molds as well as finished goods. o Built relationships with other groups within the R&D department to create network of resources for support of projects. o Responsible for educating employees across different groups about how to measure developed lenses as well as how to measure their current product. o Used CAD tools, such as SolidWorks 2016, to design and develop test fixtures for product quality verification applying GD&T system.

- Responsible for developing new procedures to improve employee safety.o Created and implemented routine system of warehouse inspections that led to an OSHA inspection with 0 infractions.o Created, monitored, and presented health and safety training programs for employees to recognize hazards and how to avoid them.o Responsible for documentation of reported spilled chemicals, both on-site and in transit.o Responsible for proper hazardous and non-hazardous waste management from cradle to grave.o Established a system to easily convert and generate new labels and SDSs that comply with new GHS labelling system.o Completed DOT, IATA, and IMDG hazardous materials training and OSH 511 course.

- Responsible for performing digestions of soil and water samples to be analyzed for metals using EPA methodso Assisted in the set-up of a new ICP-MS and Low Level Mercury Analyzer as well as develop the method of sample preparation and analysis for the EPA method. o Initiated the revision of multiple SOPs that were inconsistent with the current methods.
