o Algorithm development
• To establish methods and procedures for engineering.
• To mentor the engineers and technical staff.
• Administration including scheduling, setting priorities, establishing budgets, and hiring and
firing.
Accomplishments:
o There was a departure of the core technical team at QTT Nu-Metrics leaving only a few
engineers. I am in the process of rebuilding the engineering department.

Accomplishments:
-Continued from page 1-
I was a key employee at Micro Industries. I was promoted from Design Engineer to Program
o
Manager to Engineering Manager to Vice President of Engineering.
Transitioned the engineering department from one positioned for contract, board level design
o
to one that designs and develops Micro Industries own system level products.
o Developed internal mechanical and system design capabilities.
o Developed our qualification procedures, strategies, and capabilities including shock and
vibration testing, FCC EMI pre-scan, and those for general, overall product validation.
Authored the engineering procedures for a successful implementation of ISO 9001:2000 and
o
ISO 14001:2004.
Implemented a web based change alert system which provided a means to identify and trace
o
product problems, suggested product improvements, and obsolete parts. This improved our
engineering response time and overall quality of support.
Implemented a web based Product Evaluation Order System which gave Sales a formal way to
o
order prototypes and evaluation systems for key customers. The system logged orders, promise
dates, build information, and shipping information and used email to communicate with all
involved. This system enabled engineering to provide most evaluation systems in as little as
two days, greatly improving our lead-times and quality.
Designed the most successful product ever designed or manufactured at Micro Industries. This
o
was a telecommunications DSP board that brought over $10M in profit to Micro Industries.
Very broad design experience including designs for retail, commercial, military, medical, and
o
industrial markets. I have successfully designed products for Eastman Kodak, Carestream
Health, Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics (Johnson & Johnson), National Semiconductor, Intel,
Unisys, Allen Bradley, Picker International, Westinghouse, Diebold, Siemens, Heidelberg
Digital, Texas Instruments, and Scitex.
