To whom it may concern:

Having worked in a manufacturing environment for the last thirty

years, I have amassed considerable knowledge of today's high - tech

manufacturing practices and principles. For the majority of my

working career, I specialized in CNC programming/machining, jig and

fixture design with an emphasis on short run specialty parts as well

as mass production of complex components for area businesses.

I am currently employed as a Sr Manufacturing Engineer for a pump

manufacturer and most recently as a Programming Engineer dealing with

both conventional and non-conventional machining and welding of "super

alloys" used in the construction of turbine engine components for

aircraft and land based vehicles.

I had been employed in Manufacturing and Quality Assurance of

engine/suspension components for turbo-diesel heavy equipment. On the

manufacturing end, responsibilities primarily revolved around new

program, process and fixture implementation, modifications and

maintenance of existing processes for assigned manufacturing cells.

From the Quality standpoint, duties included, but not limited to,

capability studies, FMEA's, control plans corrective actions, gage

R&R, internal audits and CMM programming and supervision.

Before that, I was involved in Project Management of medium to large

(up to 50k lbs) components and/or assemblies of rolling mills for the

steelmakers along Lake Michigan, Lake Erie and for Alcoa Aluminum in

Little Rock and Hot Springs, Arkansas. I was responsible for all

phases of project completion, including quoting, material

requisitions, scheduling, to floor supervisor of manufacturing and

assembly as well as final inspection.

This letter is just a brief summary of my abilities and I would

welcome any opportunity to discuss my qualifications at length at

another time.

Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from

you in the future.

Sincerely,

Glenn Kalis
