Re: Requesting an
Interview
To whom it may concern,
I am interested in the Molding Engineer position. Recently I separated from
working in El Palme, Mexico as an Engineer in Manufacturing and Tooling.
My objective was to oversee that molding passed first article. I also was
assigned to the help them solve part problems. Also, while I was there I
built and help design a 40 pin assembly line that blanks, trims, inserts
and forms for use of G.M. audio line. While in Mexico, I supervised part
of the assembly department and educated employees on how to fix and prevent
the line from having problems assembling relays. I taught toolmakers and
apprentices how to run the machinery and measuring equipment. In addition
to instructing toolmakers on the usage of equipment, I advised management
with purchasing of perishable tooling and non perishable tooling.
For over 28 years, I have been employed as Lead Tool and Die Maker at Tyco
Electronics. Tyco Electronics specialized in relays for Delphi, General
Motors, Ford, GM, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and Motorola. The
company's plant closed in Franklin, KY in November 2004, and I was
contracted to work at the plant in Spartanburg, SC. Through Tyco
Electronics, I have acquired knowledge in automotive relays, circuit
breakers, commercial relays (for trains), and other electronic relays. I
am experienced on many different types of machinery and overseen all
grinding at the plant. I am skilled at quoting and coordinating incoming
work and outsourcing excess production work. Trained in ISO 9001:2000, GB/T
19001-2000, QS9000, ISO 14001,ISO 14000 and TS 16949, TYCO were certified
in all of these.
I am very interested in setting up a time to interview for this position.
Please give me a call at 270-***-****. Thank you for time and
consideration.
Sincerely, Ronald Belek
