Employment History

• Oct 2006 – May 2009 Product Engineer Dana Corporation, Maumee, OH

Division Engineer responsible for Automotive Driveshaft components. Designed, validated and released

components made from steel forgings and ductile iron castings utilizing GD&T and TS16949. Provided

technical direction to CAD designers, manufacturing engineers, suppliers and purchasing. Presented written

technical data to external customers and internal personnel. Generated engineering BOMs using

Teamcenter. Responsible for the upkeep of product and process specifications. Took lead role in ECRs at

the division level which required getting the approval of quality, applications, metallurgy, manufacturing, and

purchasing departments.

Accomplishments: •Created design masters for standard components. •Coordinated the resourcing and

validation of components that resulted from 3 Dana plant closures. •Coordinated the validation when all

Heavy Duty driveshaft assembly moved from Louisville to Lima. •Developed an entirely new process

specification for the projection welding of balance weights. •Wrote a process and quality specification for the

manufacture of splines.

• Jan 2005 – Oct 2006 Process Engineer Dana Corporation, Maumee, OH

Engineer responsible for building prototype axles and driveshafts. Used Oracle to create BOMs, inventory

components and sell out assemblies. Coordinated the sourcing of prototype components and supervised

their assembly for supporting new vehicle launches.

• June 2003 – Dec 2004 Process Engineer Alcoa Automotive, Northwood, OH

Engineer responsible for the machining, bending, riveting, and welding of aluminum automotive structures.

Designed fixtures and gages using Autocad. Wrote safe work instructions, lockout procedures and TPM

maintenance check sheets. Implemented many process improvements resulting from Lean Manufacturing

principles. Maintained a 70,000 sq ft plant layout. Plant closed in Dec 2004.

Accomplishments: •Helped redesign the entire shop floor to implement line balancing to meet Takt time.

• Dec 2002 – June 2003 Process Engineer Peterson Spring, Holland, OH

Maintained processes for rolling mills and coiling machines for automotive transmission snap rings.

Designed specialized process equipment using Autocad and supervised their implementation. Maintained a

36,000 sq ft plant layout. Internal auditor for ISO14001 environmental.

Accomplishments: •Designed an inline ultrasonic wire cleaner to eliminate a costly secondary operation of

hand wiping parts clean. •Designed Digital encoder tool to measure exact feed lengths when coiling snap

rings. •Designed an Automatic Helix Sorter machine for transmission snap rings. •Instituted philosophy

change where design and documentation of perishable tooling would be done in-house.

• July 1998 – May 2002 Tooling Engineer Rexnord, Indianapolis, IN

Supervised one other Tool Design Engineer. Designed punch press, cold former and screw machine tooling

and specialized production machines using Autocad for the manufacture of roller chain and silent chain.

Responsible for all tool design projects either built in house or through an outside vendor. Updated existing

tool designs for more economical manufacture using modern tool room processes. Responsible for keeping

a 500,000 sq ft plant layout up to date. Responsible for maintaining eleven AutoCAD stations. Participated

in three Kaizen events. Involved with ISO 9001 documentation. Maintained Access database containing

over 7000 product drawings. Plant closed in May 2002.

Accomplishments: • Designed an automatic set down and crimp machine for a medium pitch roller chain

assembly operation, performing in one automatic operation what was previously 3 separate back braking

manual operations. •Designed machine to automatically assemble Block Chain in one operation where

previously it was assembled using 3 separate hand feed OBI press operations. •Designed a 250,000 lb

hydraulic preload machine for large pitch roller chain. New machine was built at 1/4 the cost of having an

outside vendor design one. •Designed a paperless tool ordering system using Access, tools could now be

ordered/tracked/archived by department supervisors from their PC’s. •Designed an Access database for

tool drawings, allowing tool room personnel to view tool drawings from any network PC. •Part of a team that

transformed the entire shop floor from a traditional process layout to one with focused factories.

• June 1997 – July 1998 Product Engineer Rexnord, Indianapolis, IN

Responsible for the design of roller chain and silent chain components.

• Dec 1995 – May 1997 Manufacturing Engineer Matthew-Warren, Logansport, IN

Conducted product evaluation, quoting, and routing for springs, stampings, and wire forms. Instructed three

toolmakers on the programming and setup of a wire EDM machine. Used Microstation and Cosmos to

created FEA models.

Accomplishments: • Designed a 10 station automated heat set for automotive valve springs. Was built for

1/3 the cost of having an outside vendor design it.

• May 1995 – Dec 1995 Engineering Intern Matthew-Warren, Logansport, IN

Responsible for implementing an SPC Datamyte network.
