Tyco Electronics Conductivity (Nov 2011 to July 2015)
Senior Product Manager for Electrical Contacts
Reported to the Director of Product Management and Customer Support. Responsible for all facets of producing and marketing and business developing with P&L responsibilities.
Redesign website and all product literature related to electrical contacts for automotive and aerospace (38999) markets.
Using Lean Six Sigma methodology, implemented changes in manufacturing which eliminated the need for the process step of zone annealing; which resulted in an annual cost saving was estimated to be worth approximately $3.3 Million per year
Opened new sales channels with potential new revenues of $50 Million per year by introducing cold-headed contacts into new markets for Burn-in and Test Socks
Using expertise obtained while at Materion, directed activities regarding processing of non-ferrous alloys (heat treating, soldering, brazing, stamping, plating, etc.)
Upon hire, determined that a new base-metal supplier was unable to meet quality requirements and previous supply had been terminated before adequate tests were performed on new supplier
Re-established communication with incumbent supplier and got TE back on track. Eliminated quality problems that almost closed the facility; reestablished customer satisfaction. Negotiated average selling price down by 4%
Redesigned connector housing to use flame retardant glass filled plastics and new high performance CuBe alloy which salvaged down hole connector line worth $1,3 million in annual sales revenue
Personally trained the engineering staff to design contacts and select the best materials for a specific design. Streamlined the design function and greatly reduced quality challenges
Proactively redesigned two aerospace contacts that had major performance issues to bring them into compliance with SAE specifications saving millions of dollars by avoided costly product recalls
Product strategic planning, developed new product literature and product launch plans
Business planning, competitive analysis, product trends. Identify retail consumer customer trends and requirements (Voice of the Customer). Provide product vision by developing consumer insights and product life cycle knowledge.
Coordinate and manage inventory controls
Financial reporting to upper management

Direct, Global Application Engineering & Technology
Coordinate Sales and Marketing activities globally. Set up global teams to manage business activities between our U.S., European, and Asian operations.
Established a local presence in China by opening representative offices in Shanghai and Hong Kong. Hired engineering staff to provide sales and technical support to Asian distributors and agents.
Develop new automotive, aerospace, telecommunication and computer applications that could potentially use high performance alloy strip products and bulk alloys for molding, oil and gas, and bushing and bearing applications.
Coordinate new alloy product development efforts and launch plans using Lean Six Sigma methodology.
Plan, conduct, and application engineering projects aimed toward developing technical information related to material selection and product performance. This is accomplished by forming partnerships with strategic customers and OEM and first tier supply level such as Intel, AMD, Apple, Molex, Tyco-Amp, FCI, Samsung, Boeing, BAE, LMCO, Ford, Samsung, etc.
Provide engineering training seminars to key demand generators like Laird, Chomerics, Tech Etch, Hon Hai, Cheng Uei, etc., on topics like stamping, plating, photo etching, heat treating, cold heading, FEA, etch. As related to manufacturing EMI shielding and stamped electrical contacts.
Conduct joint development projects for new alloy development, special property measurement equipment test equipment. Co-author and present technical papers at key conferences and workshops.
Created a lead generation team in China to track business transfer and follow up on New Business Opportunities (NBOs).
Develop international strategic plan and deploy to various Brush Wellman International locations and subsidiaries.
Create display booths for tradeshows. Man booths to promote products and develop customer relationships.
Director, Technical Customer Service
Stress and thermal analyses of electronic switches and connectors. Analysis performed using finite element techniques (COSMOS FEA codes) and by performing hand calculations for less complex problems.
Recommend consultants and vendors to assist with design and production problems.
Make alloy recommendations based on structural analyses and design review conclusions.
Coordinate failure analyses of customer products using metallurgical techniques (hardness, microstructure examination, tensile properties, etc.)
Developed a material property data base to provide customers with all of the property information required to perform numerical modeling using copper beryllium alloys.
Develop and present customized design seminars for domestic and international customers.
Supervise day to day activities of 2 engineers and four technicians.
Perform QFD and FMEA surveys with customers.
Direct numerous projects in concert with customers geared toward characterization of material properties and developing measurement techniques to create vital information for the purpose of connector design.
Senior Research & Development Technologist
Developed hybrid electronic devices from conception to production.
Formulate new ceramic body compositions (BeO and Al2O3), includes ball milling, spray drying, dry pressing (HIP And CIP). Test ground powders for chemistry, particle size distribution, tap density, and flow (after spray drying). Prepared and test slurries for pH, % solids (using LOD techniques), viscosity, specific gravity, Zeta potential, and surface tension.
Develop co-fire metallization paste (MoMn, W based). Test metallization ink rheology and generate sheer stress vs. shear rate curves.
Build and repair atmosphere furnaces and related gas systems
Manage plating lab (electrolytic and electroless Ni & Au).
oManage waste water and chemical waste with local EPA.
oTitrate plating bathes and adjust chemistry as needed.
oTest bath surface tension and adjust using surfactants as needed.
oDeveloped a system to monitor DI water purity (using water electrical conductivity) and automatically flush and refill as needed.
oCarbon filter out organic contamination.
oMaintained bath proper pH levels.
Perform analytical testing using SEM, Auger, surface roughness, hardness, tensile testing, rheology (cone and plate), mass spectrometer, XRF, thermal shock, thermal cycling, leak detection, thermal gravimetric, and several other analytical techniques.
