company by providing engineering solutions allowing for immediate and long-term company growth.

Work Experience

8/2009 – Present BAE Systems: Platform

Solutions Fort Wayne,

IN

Product Test Engineer

Troubleshoot military and commercial aircraft

FADEC (Full Authority Digital Engine Control)

flight controls down to the component level

Familiar with critical performance on demand (Class

3) electronics repair and handling procedures

Worked with groups of additional test and support

engineers to diagnose product related issues and

provide solutions in a timely manner

Provided support to operations to insure repair and

test procedures were executed properly

Experience using a logic analyzer to capture CPU

purposes

Familiar with using an emulator to take control of a

CPU core and step through software along with using

JTAG boundary-scan to verify node continuity and

proper hardware operability

Performed critical solder joint analysis using an

Ersascope, microscope and x-ray to verify J-STD

specifications are met and reduce the chance of

failure in the field
