PROFESSIONAL HISTORY:

(Boeing Commercial Airplanes) 2015 - 2016

IT Systems Engineer

• Create, collect and document requirements for Boeing Integrated Product Data Manager (IPDM), also known as TeamCenter

• Provide documentation at each stage of IPDM project, analyzing Team-Center product design deliverable effect on IPDM product and system

• Develop workflows and perform TeamCenter tests for Boeing Product Standards Office (PSO)

• Create and maintain test cases and scripts from use cases

• Execute manual test cases (functional, regression, sanity, positive workflows). Keep training relevant to use case testing

• Worked with IT in developing TeamCenter configuration, setup, and validation for PSO IPDM.

• Coordinate modification management control records

• Experience with Agile / SCRUM methods and continuous systems integration

Tools: TeamCenter, Microsoft Visual Studio (GIDE), BMIDE, Windows

Retired (Boeing) 2012-2015

(Bell Helicopter) 2010-2012

Manufacturing Engineer

• Resolved Engineering Bill of Material (eBOM) to Manufacturing BOM (mBOM)

• Developed and implemented data migration in ENOVIA for Visiprise

• Fixed BOM issues

• Analyzed requirements for tests

• Pushed issues to management, as necessary. Documented issues, bugs, and findings

Tools: Visiprise, ENOVIA

(Boeing Phantom Works) 2007-2010

Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Systems Engineer systems integrator

• Developed use cases and wrote test scripts from requirement creation to test software developed within M&S lab

• Managed hardware baselines thru configuration control boards, status accounting report preparation (weekly Cost Performance Index [CPI] or Earned Value Management [EVM] for leadership), baseline item tracking, CM issue resolution, engineering document creation and control, internal and external audits, as well as program contract and supplier deliverable processing/tracking; Lab budget account manager: wrote software purchase business cases (ESRI, Flames, LabView, MatLab, RedHat LINUX)

• Worked for six Boeing technical fellows and M&S chief scientist, validated M&S configuration, data and change management plans

• Provided weekly status reports to management

• Setup hardware/software within lab for testing and development to support testing efforts

• Setup and maintained gigabit network switches, encryptors, and cables within M&S lab

• Organized and led meetings with GMD (Ground-based Midcourse Defense), internal Lincoln Labs, and other M&S lab customers

• Coordinated project documentation (GMD, DSS [Decision Support Systems], M&S) included engineering drawings, production specs, schedules, and contract modifications, to guarantee contract requirement success (including risk mitigation, system validation/verification, and traceability) for software development and scheduling

• Wrote hardware/software plan for LabNet (M&S gaming collaboration) to communicate with anyone in US, including Washington DC, Seattle, WA, Colorado Springs, CO, and Huntsville, AL

• Created software storyboard conceptual design, assisting developers in cognitive load reduction (component design detail, as well as system and sub-system development requirements) resulting in code & test

• Created systems using V-shape systems engineering process: (1) define and decompose system (system engineering management plan, concept of operations, system requirements, sub-system requirements, component detailed design), (2) combine hardware and software (coding, test, and traceability), and (3) provide integration and testing (component verification, sub-system verification, system verification and validation, commission system – operations & maintenance).

Tools: Java, HTML, C++, LINUX, VisualBasic, Windows

(Boeing Rotorcraft) 2000-2007

Systems Engineer

• Deployed CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) organization process improvements (understood process workflow improvements and measurement, lessons learned, process appraisals)

• Performed trade-study and benchmark testing to assist in customer satisfaction evaluations and best practices (process improvements)

• Developed and worked with TeamCenter representatives to meet workflow and system requirements

• Identified SOW (Statement of Work) contract requirements, including required documentation (measuring each project phase through statistical process control using engineering and manufacturing process knowledge)

• Converted every product support, engineering, and manufacturing group/role into TeamCenter on Boeing Philadelphia campus

• Developed documentation and trained 2500+ user community Created workflows and adapted each groups product structure to fit TeamCenter: Item, Item Revision, RID, dataset, and MIME types; Wrote data collection rules

• Commissioned system operations and maintenance

• Created system architecture diagrams related to each engineering role

• Tested software workflow and system deliverables
