I am looking for employment in a growing company that offers me a chance to show my skills and
learn new ones.
I have over 30 years experience as a technician in electronic, mechanical and electromechanical
equipment, including, but not limited to, jukeboxes, pinball machines, video games, pool tables,
cigarette vending machines and arcade games. My experience spans the change of equipment of
electromechanical design to solid state circuitry, so I can work on either and combined circuitries.
Skilled in troubleshooting equipment and components in both field and shop environments.
Provided 364 day field repair service resulting in optimum usage of all equipment. Resolved a
range of technical problems from normal breakdowns to rebuilding vandalized equipment either
in the shop or in the field. Manipulated, transformed modified equipment allowing for a variety of
solution to problems in relation to design vs. its current form to suit its environment and needs.

As a electronic bench tech, I troubleshoot and repair circuits from analog audio and video to
digital micro computer circuits resulting in a 75% cost saving from replacing new parts. Replaced
components found to be faulty and known to have a high failure rate thus preventing future
breakdowns.
As manager, I developed protocol and procedures in both shop and field work. Decided and
coordinated equipment movements, tracked equipment and part inventories, designed and built
test equipment, controlled parts inventory, set employee schedules,.
Have worked as test technician of circuit boards as they came from production and customer
returns. Made sure the boards worked to specification and repaired those that did not.
Capable of repairing equipment to new factory status or finding unique and creative solutions
when needed, resulting in saving money in down time while waiting for ordered parts.
During my time in music and game repair, determined problems and found solutions to circuitry
failures down to component level. I determined best procedures for installations for best
experience and use to the customer.
I have experience with various test and shop equipment including, but not limited to, oscilloscope,
signal generator (audio and video), multi-meters, EPROM programmers, logic probe, soldering.
I own my own multi-meter, logic probe, oscilloscope, video pattern generator, soldering stations,
EPROM programmer, along with numerous hand tools and am proficient in their use.
Other tools and equipment I can operate include hand construction tools (including circular saw,
band saw, drill press, drills, etc) sheet metal break & forklifts.
I have delivered and set up the equipment at locations. Including, but not limited to, physical
delivery, leveling, electrical hook up, network wiring, and speaker setup. Equipment ranging from
counter top video games to pool tables in size.
I have very good spatial acuity, so I am good at visualizing how to build and best place items into
given spaces.
I have knowledge of sheet metal working from building and installing AC ducts and repairing
damaged equipment.
Other employment history include; construction carpentry, pouring cement, steel roof decking,
