WORK HISTORY

As an engineer/lead engineer for the electrical department to support a contract with NASA- Johnson Space Center, my responsibilities were to provide engineering expertise to produce quality and cost-efficient design solutions to be presented to NASA engineers. This includes preliminary calculations, design development, and specification matching for modifications or new installation of equipment at Johnson Space Center, Ellington Field, and the Sonny Carter Training Facility. The projects that I was assigned range from small time spans (1-3 days) to relatively large time spans (6 months). I am responsible for coordinating and managing other engineers to ensure accurate and successful project completion for our clients. I also assist non-electrical engineers with their specific projects when they require electrical support.

PACIFIC ARCHTECTTURAL ENGINEERING (PAE)

2013-2017

At PAE, I have designed many challenging project solutions such as the following: 2015, I designed & specified a complete 750 KVA standby generator to support the NASA Buoyancy Lab at the Sonny Carter Training Facility. I performed a load calculation & determined the size of generator needed. My design package included all necessary equipment for this project such as a generator, two automatic transfer switches, and power & control cable wiring scheme. The design was completed ahead of schedule. 2014, I completed a study on NASA’s Building 49 electrical equipment. The purpose of the study was to verify and certify that the electrical equipment would be able to support the upcoming testing of the James Webb Space Telescope. I inspected and validated all electrical equipment in the building such as switchgears and motor control centers. I also provided a recommendation for some electrical equipment to be replaced. 2013, I completed, signed, and sealed a design package to replace five lift stations in Johnson Space Center. The design included sizing the pumps, sizing the power source, and establishing the remote monitoring system. The project was completed safely & ahead of schedule. The design was completed based on the latest version of the National Electrical Code, hazardous location section.

CSC Applied Technology Division

1990-2013

2013, I completed, signed, and sealed a design package to replace five lift stations in Johnson Space Center. The design included sizing the pumps, sizing the power source, and establishing the remote monitoring system. The project was completed safely & ahead of schedule. The design was completed based on the latest version of the National Electrical Code, hazardous location section.

2012, I completed a design & specifications to install a 1 MVA emergency generator to support one of NASA’s data centers. I specified and sized the necessary equipment requirements to complete the installation such as two automatic transfer switches, power 3

cable sizes, cable bus size, and control interface between the ATS & the generator. The project was completed successfully.

BROWN AND ROOT SERVICES PIONEER

1987-1990

1990, I was assigned to perform design for a computer cooling system located in the mission control center at Johnson Space Center (NASA). This computer system is used for communication with the space shuttle. I designed and specified the complete package, including Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to control and monitor twelve (12) pumps. These pumps were to be monitored from three (3) different locations. I designed the pumps so they could be turned on/off automatically and manually based on specific needs. The project was completed ahead of schedule. The total cost of this project was

$250,000.

1989, I was given a project to design a 50KVA power conditioning system for high tech computers for the Johnson Space Center (NASA). After I performed a load analysis, I then designed and specified the required equipment needed. I performed short-circuit calculations for the system to determine maximum amperage in case of short-circuit. Based on these calculations, I specified equipment to withstand the calculated amperage. The project was completed successfully. The approximate cost was $300,000. 1989, I was assigned as the electrical support for the explosive storage facility at the Johnson Space Center (NASA). I designed and specified coating composites for conductive flooring with resistance of 200,000 – 300,000 OHM. I designed grounding, lightning protection, and all required accessories such as explosion proof light fixtures and receptacles. This project was completed successfully. The approximate cost of the portion I designed was $200,000.

SOGEX INTERNATIONAL.

1978 to 1980 - Saudi Arabia

Upon completion of technical high school (Electrical major). I went to work for SOGEX as an electrician and worked my way up to become a Foreman. My duties were, but not limited to, resolve any electrical problem in a timely and safe manner. Some of the tasks 4

included fixing air conditioning systems, cranes, lighting, and welding machines. I resigned to further my education in engineering.

I have always strived to perform the best and help to bring up the overall performance of the company. Since my insertion on this contract I have completed approximately 2000 projects of which about ninety-five percent (95%) have been evaluated excellent. EDUCATION
