Principle Electrical Systems Engineer for the Goddard Space Flight Center (NASA) On-Orbit Servicing Assy and Manufacturing-1 (OSAM1) Payload Services Unit (PSU). Lead the efforts to perform all PSU box level design, manufacturing, and testing (including test plans/test procedures/test scripts. Developed/Track Requirements Verification Matrix (RVM)for the PSU (using DOORS). Provide Updates to the development/delivery schedules (IMS), develop the Electrical Test Plans/Procedures/Work Orders, update Interface Control Documents (ICD’s), and update the EGSE design requirements. Develop Hardware and Software Interface Specifications. Create electronic hardware circuit, system, test equipment designs/drawings. Test/validate system designs to meet operational and functional requirements. Provided Process Engineering Management, providing technical direction and management support. Monitor supplier performance to ensure system integration and compliance to requirements. Troubleshoot and resolve issues with electronic components, systems, and test equipment. Solve problems concerning completed hardware and software over product life cycle. Worked with S&T, Manufacturing, ASC’s, Platform and Business Leads developing and scaling up/improving products especially related to manufacturability. Lead AS9100 Certification, Lean, and 6S Initiatives. Analyzed test data and specifications to determine feasibility of projects and recommended path forward. Directed major capital projects (Highbay upgrades, Thermal Vacuum Chamber Refurbishments, etc). Oversaw process improvements, lean/EHS programs to optimize the supply chain product quality. After PSU Design Failure Issue, used Process Engineering to reflow PSU I&T Schedule to complete the PSU delivery on time while meeting all Test and Manufacturing requirements,
