PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
Associate Engineer (2005 August - 2006 March) at RLM Machinery Ltd
Assisted in implementing and utilizing lean Manufacturing techniques to
improve productivity, throughput and cycle time
Persuaded the management to use 2 CNC machines instead of one, for a
complex, time consuming part that resulted in saving about 30 minutes per
cycle
Supervised a group of 5 machine operators and provided support regarding
rate of production versus scrap rate and eliminating to waste.
Liaised between upper management and machine operators to provide two way
feedbacks by conducting weekly meetings.
Quality Engineer (2006 April - 2007 April) at RLM Machinery Ltd
Promoted as a Quality Engineer from an Associate Engineer
Responsible for GD&T and ensure that the parts are within the tolerance
range.
Performed Random Sampling to determine non-conforming parts
Acted as a liaison between design and manufacturing teams.
Implemented six sigma technologies to solve a variety of design and
manufacturing issues.

(2008 January - October 2011) - Research Engineer
National Institute for Aviation Research is aircraft fuselage manufacturing
company
Attended Customer meetings to review the design and blueprints and
timelines.
Read the engineering drawings and create master cam programs.
Worked in 3 different projects simultaneously and ensured timely sign offs
of the projects.
Used Lean manufacturing and six sigma techniques to improve cycle time.
Used eVSM software to determine bottleneck and eliminate waste.
Implemented 5S technique in the shop floor to manage space to provide
safe and adequate working area.
Quality control
Responsible for ensuring the manufactured composite materials' dimensions

aggregate of 74%
M.S in Industrial Engineering, Wichita State University, Graduated in 2010
with a GPA of 3.1.
PROJECTS: Graduate Project
Title of the Project: "Improving the water jet process for composite
manufacturing"
Description : Used Design of Experiments (DOE), ANOVA, SPC and DMAIC to
compare factors like operational cost and dimensional accuracy of composite
materials, when machined using Water jet pro and a conventional milling
machine.
