Maintenance Engineering/Customer Services, Bombardier Aerospace As a member of the CSeries maintenance engineering team I have delivered more than 10 high impact projects balancing company goals and customer satisfaction. Acting as the specialist for the hydromechanical system I explored design opportunities to improve system performance, including technical and commercial adjustments.
Key accomplishments:
Led improvements on the hydromechanical systems (hydraulics, landing gear, flight controls etc.) for cost and reliability performance.
Worked closely with the hydraulics suppliers to optimize hydraulic system maintenance.
Introduced new methods to track aircraft performance leading to multi-million-dollar customer operational savings.
Managed an interdisciplinary project team to improve over 400 technical limitations for reliability, availability and maintainability.
Developed advanced analytics tools to predict structural repair probabilities, this tool is used to improve Bombardier profits due to repairs.
Research Associate May/2014-Sept/2014
Department of Physics, University of Toronto; Supervisor: Dr. A Steinberg During this placement I contributed to advanced quantum physics research through independent and group projects. I repaired and improved a complex quantum laser source in addition to documenting interesting theoretical phenomena. I supervised an undergraduate student on additional research in the field.
Key Accomplishments:
Increased apparatus efficiency by 250%.
Introduced a systematic approach to maintain and improve a complex laser apparatus.
Delivered presentations on advanced research to varied audiences.
Implemented advanced statistics models to examine quantum phenomena.
Documented apparatus limitations and experimental criteria.
Self-taught python to interface with the apparatus. Skills and Knowledge:

G. Johnston
Summer Research Student May/2012 – Sept/2012
Department of Radiation Oncology Physics, University of Calgary In this role I carried out research related to radiation treatment for cancer patient. Working with a team of medical physicists I carried out 2 independent projects and supported 3 additional side projects. Key accomplishments:
Delivered analytic evidence to recommend the implementation of a new imaging algorithm for patient treatment planning.
Reduced routine task time by a factor of 6 through the automation of a quality assurance protocol.
Taught other interns how to use analytics software (Matlab).
Implemented algorithms and procedures to examine imaging performance.
Contributed programming support for additional projects.
