Professional Work Experience
National Oilwell Varco, Houston, TX Senior Mechanical Engineer Feb 2014-June 2017
Applied strong technical knowledge as project owner to design, engineer, and innovate customized, customer-centric designs of pressure vessel static mixers, heat exchangers, reactors, jacketed mixers, and high-shear pipeline mixers with no supervision.
Cross functioned with manufacturing, applications, purchasing, shipping, authorized inspectors, quality, customer and representatives, managers, marketing, and suppliers to resolve issues, expedite components, gather, research, and provide additional information in a timely and proficient manner.
Oversaw mechanical engineers’ designs, produced and certified manufacturing drawings, GA’s, BOMs, ran calculations and FEA per code, created flow charts, and presented engineering training sessions.
Applied working knowledge of designing pressure equipment to common design codes (e.g. ASME VIII, ASME B31.3, B16.5, SSPC)
Excellent communication, customer oriented, strong modeling & CAD skills (10+ years), friendly, and non-stop high work ethic.
Prepared, led, and presented process flow diagram meetings.
Improved engineering team efficiency by using self-taught advanced excel functions and macros to create custom calculators and easily accessible common reference tables, charts, and figures for designers & engineers.
Volcano Corporation, Billerica, MA Mechanical Engineer Feb 2013-Dec 2013
Adhered to IEC 60601 and 60825 standards to implement medical device labeling of Class 1 lasers in a small, fast paced environment.
Processed engineering change orders to release drawings, work instructions, protocols, and scrap reports.
Led team meetings, cross functioned with departments, gathered REACH/RoHS documentation, and balanced multiple tasks.
Material distribution owner of over $250k and 7,000 custom and OTS parts in the Optical Coherence Tomography R&D Group.
Onvio, Salem, NH Mechanical Engineer Feb 2012–June 2012
Interfaced with assemblers and machinists to create new work instructions, fixtures, and quickly adapted to various workstations in the assembly, servicing, and testing process of gearboxes and cycloidal reducers.
Hands on tasks included cryogenic handling and fitting, precision assembly of cam rollers using gauge blocks, torque wrenches, dial gauges, and setting up and running torque tests.
NK Labs, Cambridge, MA Mechanical/Electrical Technician May 2011–Aug. 2011

Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA R&D Engineer Co-Op July 2010–Jan.2011
Worked to release a next generation nitinol stent in the Endoscopy R&D Group where prototypes were evaluated for performance thereby successfully enabling the project to advance to animal testing.
Took control of constructing test fixtures via CAD, stent delivery devices, and conducting prototype performance tests ranging from fatigue life cycle, flexural strength, radial force, and more, with minimal supervision.
Analyzed stent failures and mechanical parameters using CMMs, SEMs, laser micrometers, universal tensile machines, pneumatic/electrical mixers, then communicated findings via technical report writing, lab notes with GDP, and project status presentations.
Proven Process, Mansfield, MA Mechanical Engineer Co-Op Jun 2009–Dec 2009
Assisted with various aspects of product development including mechanical design, materials procurement, hardware/fixture fabrication, test protocol development, test report preparation, and participation in meetings.
Generated ECOs, flowcharts, updated/created CAD drawings with SolidWorks, redlined Manufacturing Procedures, Test Methods, and routers leading to improved manufacturing development and packaging procedures.
Performed V&V tests on an MRI implantable/programmable morphine pump in an ISO 13485 workplace and clean room environment.
Machine Shop at Northeastern U, Boston, MA Machinist Assistant Jan 2009–Apr 2009
