Quality Control Manager
Resume:
Licensed tool and die maker since ****. Started drafting courses at
night during the 4-year term of my apprenticeship. Emphasis focused on
designing and building tools that were easy to make and service and
maintain high quality repeatability. Started looking for challenging work
on a contract basis. Bought my first computer using AutoCAD, Mastercam, to
improve design times and eliminate redundant drafting procedures in 1985.
My strong machine shop skills proved me to be a very efficient tool
designer. Utilizing excellent communication and team player attitude has
made innovative tools become reality. Simplifying tool designs (Solidworks)
to utilize CNC and reduce turn around times.
