find new suppliers for our products, as well define tools and equipment for our inspection tests.
Perform audits to our suppliers based on the nuclear points. At the same time, generate and get
agreement to the order texts to meet nuclear requirements.
I was the Quality Engineer for the DX Nails Project. This production line was working at
Chine so my responsibility was to implement all quality manuals, define and implement all
engineering, production and serial production validation tests, as well define, purchased and train
quality technician on all new equipment to test nails like microscope, hardness tester, mounting and
polishing equipment, grinding machine, etc. also train all production and quality technicians in the
usage of the measuring equipment like optical comparator, micrometer and calipers, concentricity
testers etc. including the implementation of the SPC tools.

Jul 06 – Sep 07 Sanmina-SCI at Laredo TX. Repair Center
Engineering Manager Responsibilities Include:
Sanmina is a contract manufacturing company, which in this Laredo facility is dedicated to
repair Motherboard from IBM servers. We transferred the repairing line from Rapid City SD to Laredo
TX. We took some technicians and operators to Rapid City to be trained in the repairing process. At
Laredo Plant, I created all Work Instructions, Flow Charts Test Instructions, Control Plan, PFMEA as
well I created the system for Document Control to centralize all documents, I Implement the KPIs
(Key Process Indicators). Also to help the operators, I created all work instructions for PCB
troubleshooting and check list, I implemented the PM and calibration program for the machines
(testers, DMM, oscilloscopes, BGA etc). as well I used a computer system to add all BOM,
schematics, PCB layout. With this system, we save all paper work as backup. The 5S, Kaizen and
Lean Manufacturing concepts were implemented.
Achievements: In order to incorporate new products I combined test benches, so we optimized the
repair area. As well we adapted the pull system to reduce the WIP. Since most of the electronic
Technicians were not familiar with basic of electronics like transistors, diodes etc, I gave some
training on the basic of electronic to them.

used in assembling of new testers. Participate in the training of assemble-line workers for the new
tester usages. Develop of PFMEA's (of the EOLT), TPM, and participate on control plans
development. Develop test plans for new tester. Design test plan for clock springs as cancellation,
torque and centering test as well the SAS calibration etc. Since the lack of people, I am helping
product engineering on Honda immobilizer and Saturn IBCM (Beck) warranties return analysis. Also
write all documentation for ISO/TS 16949 related to Test Eng. Department.
Achievements: Since Vale had no experience on automotive window lift switches I was hired to
improve the current window lift testers in order to meet customer specifications, as well in order to
meet the rate that the customer (Chrysler) requires, we developed new testers. All APQP,
documentation was crated in advance for Customer products. Validation tests, PFMEA, Control
Plans, and all aspects that shows that the product meets customer needs.

industrialization / Introduction of new products NPI.
Jan 97 – Dec 98 Present Product Engineer.
DELPHI Responsibilities included Chrysler Electronic products for window lift switches.
During this time, I modified the product (motor and electronic system) to fix some quality concern as
well as making some cost savings. The cost was improved in 5 %. I worked with the Engineering
Center in Chicago on different design issues, this handling of the drawings, bill of materials, tooling,
setups and operating manuals. As well participate and several DFMEA and PFMEAS.
Achievements: Improve the cost on a window lift switch in 5%, Transfer lines form Winimac
to Matamoros, and developed new Test Equipment suppliers.
