I am a pioneer and have worked hard to reach prodigious triumphs. My

gifted ingenuity, vision, and higher understanding have driven me to the

front of my colleagues. Out of archetypal manufacturing evolvement, my

uncommon skills and insight have drawn my roles through ever changing

responsibilities. While my primary experience has been in PCB engineering,

I have also had key involvement in environmental, construction, facility

management, customer service, and maintenance projects. Therefore, my

talent, ambition, and skills can be applied easily to any type of role that

requires organization, leadership, intelligence, and vision.

My career has contributed a great deal of time in steering the engineering

teams of facilities in Malaysia and Singapore. My challenges and victories

in Southeast Asia cannot be understated. The knowledge I poses from my

experiences there are absolutely vital to the success of companies within

the states.

Among so many things, I have been the leader in developing cutting edge

processes for the world's largest patent holder; commanded team efforts to

meliorate final inspection processes and diminish customer returns; re-

tooled every process to handle several major product changes; organized

mechanical maintenance to internalize and discontinue expensive contracts;

delineated the failure analysis systems for affective automated analysis. I

have been the foremost authority for controlling every aspect of large

numbers of machines that command great insight and dollars. I get respect

and praise everyday for what I do. I enjoy my work and live by a strong

ethic; however I have recently relocated to central Florida for family

reasons.

I am a dedicated engineer with the right attitude that has made and saved

Sanmina-SCI millions of dollars. My resume cannot begin to tell the whole

story. Please allow me the opportunity to discuss further what I can do for

you.

Best Regards

Recommendation from StevenPittari,GeneralManager,Sanmina:

"I worked with David during my tenure at Sanmina and recommend him without

hesitation. In any organization there are a handful of talented employees

that manage to separate from the crowd with innovative thinking and problem

solving ability. In almost all cases these individuals are not only highly

intelligent, but possess the positive attitude to tackle new challenges

with extreme confidence. David without doubt fits into that category. His

ability to solve technical issues was impressive as was his ability to

effectively communicate with those around him. Those who most likely will

be impacted by potential process change, including operators, engineers and

managers. David was able to carry this out due to the respect that these

functional groups had for his abilities. David's technical ability and

communication skills also proved valuable during customer visits, as he was

capable of explaining the process with technical competence, enthusiasm and

pride. Always eager to improve himself and learn new skills David took

advantage of any training provided including getting his Green Belt

certification." August 4, 2010
