summary
Sr. Electro Mech Designer, using well founded engineering principals. I offer a rich history in successfully
bringing "New Product Releases" into lean manufacturing environments. Have used parametric tools (ten
years Solidworks, and over two years ProE 3.0) while bridging electrical and mechanical designs using the
latest ECAD/MCAD (CircuitWorks, Mentor, HarnsessExpert) tools while in early product development.
Having been recruited by Raytheon early in my career, and climbing the ladder as Sr. Mechanical Designer
has helped me acquire a unique blend of skill sets that have been used in several World Class organizations.
I do not have my BSME, however have been given title and successfully been doing engineering for most of
the companies I have worked for (supplemented my skill sets with seminars in thermal, structural, and the
latest MCAD, and ECAD tools). Some accomplishments include Incorporating advanced packaging
techniques in the design of several R F power casting modules with unique clamshells for isolating
microwave, digital and analog compartments to pass; FCC, CE, NEBS, and IEC requirements. Working
very closely with Sr. Scientist used Solidworks in packaging several power sources (Semiconductor)
including hybrid circuit design for H Bridge power dies, using AlSic. Designed several Power Sources
enclosures used in different sectors of industry. Designed and fabricated three large Precision Sand Castings
used at Teradyne “Medusa” Test Head, which resulted in 45% cost savings by eliminating complex, and
expensive machined sub assy parts. Design and fabricated large Thermoformed front skins for large 19”
racks giving the appearance of Injection Molded parts at a fraction of the cost.

Program Managers while enhancing existing, and launching new flag ship family of Plasma Cutters
while in various design stages within a wide family of plasma cutting products. Extensive use of
ProE Wild Fire 3.0, and started training designers using SW 2008. Worked very closely with
manufacturing using Kaisen, and concurrent engineering to manage schedules during all phases of
product development. Introduced using HarnessExpert for cabling and critical harnesses. Worked
closely with Manufacturing using Lean Manufacturing “Hokey Pokey”, especially in cabling, and
creating sub assembly modules, allowing uniform Hi Pot, and Ground Bond Testing while creating
robust rugged designs.
• Thermal management, RF/EMI challenges addressed while compliancy to UL, CE,
ANSI/IEC 60974 1. Alien Cross Talk Shielding. Ground Bond testing and HiPot Testing were
designed in.
• Worked very closely with manufacturing using Kaisen, and concurrent engineering to
manage schedules during all phases of product development. Responsible for design intent
integration to offshore Engineering and Manufacturing departments. I introduced 3Dvia
Composer (3D Authoring tool) for efficient creation of effective Manufacturing and Assembly
work instructions while using existing native CAD file (Solidworks, ProE, Inventor) or STEP
model. With 3D exploded views, annotations, callouts, and balloons while using dynamic 3D
graphics to simplify understanding of documents whether used here or offshore.
