Seeking: Engineering position in: Digital, Analog and RF designs, Quality, Electronics manufacturing, Procurement, New Product Introduction, External Manufacturing Site management, Out-Source Engineering and Management. Summary: Experienced in Electronic Design, Quality (Lean Six Sigma), Manufacturing and Test of Electronic products in the US and overseas. Trained employees in Six Sigma and Lean. Dedicated to waste elimination, Customer Service, Product, Quality, Price and Delivery.

Electrical Engineer, Horton Automatics.Corpus Christi, Texas, 2010 to 2012. . Added Modbus communication with controller to display and control test parameters of the door controller.. Designed Programmable Relay (IDEC) based electronic accessory to door controller and life testing of electromechanical parts.. Designed Visual Basic 2010 program to display test parameters for customer.. Explored into PLC based designs.. Monitored quality through examining the customer returned electronic modules. Oversaw implementation of corrective actions for the root causes. Eliminated 100% of all defects detected.

Professional Responsibilities/Accomplishments:Senior Hardware Engineer, BAE Systems.Irving Texas, 2008 to 2009. Analyzed, remedied direct cause (containment), root caused and resolved issues with customer returned failed boards and modules from Airline companies resulting in 100% prevention of defects detected. Trained 19 Senior Engineers in Lean Six Sigma with Cost Of Poor Quality and Root Cause and Corrective Action focus resulting in 100% paradigm shift from 'direct cause' focus to RCCA. This also resulted in more than 50% reduction of 'recycles'. This also made the personnel understand the nature of wastes. Trained 11 sourcing engineers in Root Cause and Corrective Action principles and methodology with Customer Affinity in focus resulting in engineers demanding RCCA of 100% of the defective supplied materials found.. Guided the Engineers in root causing. Trained and lead a group of 14 Engineers in X Metrics resulting in a group focus on quantified time and cost deliverables. Procured components, negotiated prices and resolved daily sourcing issues (including unplanned requirements to satisfy customers) resulting in 100% internal customer satisfaction. The procurement system was based on Oracle with Pull system and Kanban focus.. Started Supplier Development process in Lean Six Sigma.

Principal Staff Engineer, New Product Introduction, Motorola Inc.Fort Worth, Texas, 2001 to 2008. Lead Engineer, New Product introduction: Lead Engineers in resolving design and manufacturing issues with boards and modules used in new base-station Equipment. Resolved RF, Digital and Analog product issues to improve yields based on DMAIC and Lean. This resulted in 100% elimination of the design and manufacturing defects found. The preventive actions were put in place to completely eliminate reoccurrence. The functional test yield was improved by 80+% in many cases. Provided guidance to Design and Test - based on 'Design For Six Sigma' (DFSS). Improved capability indices; from near 1.0 to greater than 1.5 in many cases by ensuring Total Preventive Maintenance, correcting design issues and remedying manufacturing issues.. Guided/mentored Engineers/Technicians in designs, capability indices, analysis algorithms, for test and manufacturing. This resulted in quality consciousness; understanding and flagging an issue before it became a line stopper. Verified design and suggested remedies for deficiencies; worked towards resolving the issues to produce Six Sigma quality products. This resulted in prevention of latent defects from reaching the customer; 100% success in RCCA.. Guided EMS (in China and Mexico) personnel in producing Six Sigma quality in out sourced boards and modules; resolved potential reliability and repeatability issues affecting yields. The issues mainly related to manufacturing and capability indices; 100% remedied. Spearheaded the reduction effort for field failed boards and modules (I owned) with a goal to eliminate the root causes of failures (focus: Cost Of Poor Quality). These were the issues not detectable during design and manufacturing. the issues were 100% remedied and prevention action put in place.

Project Manager, Cleveland Medical Devices,Irving, Texas (branch folded); 1999 to 2000 Mentored two RF engineers, supervised RF PCB and package designs for data transceiver for medical applications. This resulted in stable and repeatable designs in 100% of the cases.

Principal Engineer, Intermec Tech. Corp. Amtech Sys. Div.Albuquerque, NM, 1999. Designed, developed and managed RF subsystems for RFID based Readers in 900 MHz ISM band. - Designed PLL, Power Amp subsystem. Prototyped the new designs, tested and then incorporated them into the reader system. Introduction of in-house design of synthesizer was to bring down the cost of manufacturing to 40% of the originally planned cost. - Monitored and controlled the progress of projects using Microsoft Project. The project always met time and budget constraints. Senior Staff Engineer, Decibel Products. Dallas, Texas; 1998 to 1999. Introduced PCB prototyping tool, trained all engineers and technicians. This reduced the time taken for the prototyping of new circuit and PCB designs. The cycle time was reduced to less than 1/3 (previously taken) in every case. Managed Projects using 'Microsoft Project' and 'Power Point'. Designed, Develop and Test PCS/DCS Antenna Systems (launched 7 new systems into production). - Performed Calculations, Design, Simulation; test for RL, IM, Patterns and Environmental. - Guided the PCB CAD Operators and Production Personnel for proper documentation/implementation. - Investigated into the Active Antenna Systems and the PCB based Antenna Designs. Helped colleagues in project management, how to use the Prototype Design Tool and the PCB design CAD.

Senior Design/Development Engineer, NEC America. Irving, Texas; 1997 to 1998. Designed, Developed and Tested the Receiver and the Synthesizer for the PCS1900 CDMA phone. - Selected Components, Evaluated, them, Designed the Sub-Systems, Tested and wrote Specifications. - Performed system calculations, designed inter-stage matching, designed driver Amplifiers etc. - Designed the Test Matrix (abiding by the J-STD-018) and tested the Receiver Sub-System. - Designed the initial Schematic and the PCB, guided and oversaw the PCB Designer for final Design. Introduced PCB design and prototyping tools and saved money and time in prototyping new designs. Guided, directed and helped all the fellow engineers in carrying out their design/development efforts. Managed the Project (using Microsoft Project) and monitored timeliness of progress. Managed the group in the absence of the group leader.

Senior RF Engineer, Nokia Telecommunications Inc.West Lake, Texas; 1996 to 1997. Developed Power Amplifier for the Enhancement of the GSM PCS Base Stations. - Wrote the Power Amplifier Requirement Spec., guided the manufacturer and tested the same. - Managed the Project with the help of 'Microsoft Project'.
