CyberCoders

To whom it may concern:

As an electrical engineer with excellent qualifications and a strong track record in this profession, I am seeking to align myself with a world class company producing world class products. With two successful start-up companies in my past the scope of my experience spans both electrical and mechanical designs and includes schematic entry, high speed PCB layout, machined designs, sheet metal designs, and plastic injection molded designs. Capitalizing on my work with both large established and small startup companies, I am seeking a professional opportunity where my engineering skills can benefit CyberCoders. With this goal in mind, I have attached a resume outlining my qualifications. Here are a few of my significant capabilities:

Experience in both electrical and mechanical designs. High speed HDI PCB layout, schematic entry, plastic injection parts, sheet metal parts, CAD librarian, low power designs, embedded design and bring up and product development through high volume production.

Excellent organizational, interpersonal, and communication skills with the flexibility and experience required to remain highly focused in fast paced demanding environments.

Superior ability to simultaneously manage many projects and still deliver to demanding schedules and performance standards.

Team player who enjoys the group effort of solving engineering obstacles and bring product ideas to market.

PCB layout to 3D board model experience.

Proven entrepreneur spirit.

I believe that I have the qualifications and enthusiasm that can benefit CyberCoders. Please consider me for the Electrical Engineering position, any positions you feel I may qualify, or any future job openings that may come up. I am quick learner in all CAD software. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely,

John Slater
