Using CATIA V5, supported the integrated fuselage assembly team by
creating numerous concepts for aircraft tool designs on demand. Coordinated
with the manufacturing engineering team and shop personnel in a rapidly
changing environment. Used ENOVIA to retrieve engineering reference
models to overlay tooling concepts. Collected engineering data and
responsible for writing reports, cost estimating, shop time usage
estimates, and investigated aircraft structures for manufacturability.
Supplied finished tool design concepts to tool design customers and
rendered CATIA peer training and expertise as needed. Program: 787
Dreamliner, The Boeing Company.

and evaluated design alternatives. Analyzed and selected tooling materials
and "off the shelf" components for efficient incorporation into tool
designs. Investigated design or performance problems in existing tooling
and coordinated with cross-functional teams such as manufacturing
engineering and quality insurance to create effective solutions. Prepared
complex tool drawing packages for customer design review meetings and
