Engineer Manufacturing

Objective

My goal is secure a position as a manufacturing engineer. I bring applicable technical experience from the semiconductor manufacturing engineer field: solving complex technical issues such as scaling up from a pilot line to full scale manufacturing, development of process/productivity improvement through implementation of solutions using automation. I also bring perspective as a medical lab technician: multitasking in a fast paced environment and producing high quality results for accurate treatment of patients in a cardiac clinic.
