SUMMARY

A dedicated and analytical chemical engineer with a strong background in oxidation engineering, quality assurance, issue investigation and resolution via SQL and VBA programming, and materials analysis. Uses available resources in an inventive manner to complete tasks as efficiently possible. Excels at identifying forward-thinking solutions to improve quality and efficiency. Detail oriented planner so potential project roadblocks can be evaluated at the start of a project to avoid time delays. Proven aptitude for reducing costs and consistently achieving objectives.

TECHNICAL SKILLS

VBA, SQL, Arduino, BDF Kokusai Horizontal Furnaces, LAM 4400 Etchers, TI PAC Etchers, KLAT Optiprobe Measurement Tool, KLAT UV Measurement Tool

EXPERIENCE

TEXAS INSTRUMENTS, Dallas, Texas

Diffusion Oxidation Engineer, 2017-2019

Managed set of furnaces used for oxidation process.

Oversaw quality, including identifying concerns from detection systems, investigating issues, and determining fixes.

Developed and implemented process improvements that resulted in reduced costs associated with equipment/process.

Spearheaded projects designed to increase process marginality between whether or not material produced met specifications.

Learned SQL and VBA programming languages in order to help speed up data analysis.

Conducted analysis comparing quartz material and silicon carbide used during processing and determined quartz material was negatively impacting manufacturing environment. Recommended switching to silicon carbide, resulting in savings of $30,000 per year.

Developed new process introducing addition of another gas to help eliminate an intermittent contamination issue that had been causing yield loss since 2008. Introduced process to another manufacturing site within TI to solve similar issue.

Led project to eliminate use of unnecessary bare silicon material used for measuring LBCSOI devices, and switched to LBC4, enabling measurability and quality monitoring and resulting in a cost savings of $50,000 per year.

ADDITIONAL INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE

TEXAS INSTRUMENTS, Dallas, Texas

Yield Enhancement Intern, 2015

Optimized current procedures to create defect identification programs

Created new defect identification programs for select, more complex devices

Automated rework process steps to avoid potential mistakes due to manual entry

UNITED STATES NAVY, Dallas, Texas

Hydrogen Fuel Cells Intern, 2014

Quickly grasped the key operation parameters of an optical profilometer

Designed layout procedure to show correlation between resistance and shape of 3D printed fuel cells

Used knowledge of C++ to create an Adrunio kit that can measure the voltage of multiple fuel cells
