Senior Manufacturing Engineer - Electronics:

Planned and scheduled the movement of material through the product lifecycle to stabilize the supply chain.

Managed and developed strategic suppliers in support of outsourcing.

Managed suppliers for price, delivery, and quality expectations - escalated to management when appropriate.

Provided direct technical liaison support to the supply chain -- in particular to board houses and contract suppliers/vendors by reviewing test data, troubleshooting manufacturing issues, and visiting local board houses to support fixturing.

Managed a team of Engineers and Buyers/Planners that researched the replacement of legacy and obsolete components/assemblies. Despite the large volume of activity, constraints on last time buys, and the ramp in production, no system shipments were impacted by component obsolescence.

Provided high-level technical support to production and design engineering for New Product Introduction (NPI)

– resulting in product improvements through the ECO (Engineering Change Order) process via updates to procedures and CAD drawings on the Agile CM (Content Manager) and MatrixOne databases.

Designed and fabricated electrical test fixtures and tooling – increasing the reliability and MTBF for sub-assembly hardware.

Authored numerous test and assembly procedures (with digital photographs) which assisted both the Final Test and Integration assembly technicians in their qualification of sub-systems.

Coordinated NPI activity with Engineering and Manufacturing; Implemented ECOs with the material plan. Granger Engineering Services 2004-2005

Contract Engineer – Electronics, AutoCAD, and Technical Writer

Provided technical support to the installation and retrofit of hydroelectric facilities throughout Northern California and Oregon.

Using AutoCAD Electrical 2006, created numerous electrical schematics and wiring diagrams (including “One- Line” and “Three-Line” diagrams) to support the daily operations at hydroelectric projects. All parts within these documents were cross-referenced between parent and child components.

Authored Operations Manuals/Procedures, annual Maintenance Reports, and annual Water Flow Reports in support of hydroelectric operational projects.

Researched, authored, and submitted suggestions for Corrective Action against sub-assemblies in order to promote performance and quality improvements in the manufacture of company products.

Authored test and assembly procedures (with digital photographs) which improved the repeatability of the assembly process and the documentation trail for ISO audits. Applied Materials Company (formerly Etec Systems Inc.) 198*-****-***** Corporate Avenue, Hayward, CA 94545

Sustaining/Manufacturing Engineer - Electronic Hardware:

Designed “System Interconnect” diagrams by displaying >500 cables that provided signal, automated control, and power to electronic subsystems for field service and system test teams.

Administered the engineering “Cable Database “ (using MS Access) by initiating and documenting changes to

>1000 electronic cables which controlled all system/machine functions.

Designed the electronics and schematics for a “Temperature Control“ retrofit project which provided customers with a more reliable coolant loop and tighter temperature tolerances.

Documented and controlled electronic enhancements for multiple retrofit projects which enabled customers to upgrade their products for increased throughput and dependability.

Supported new product introduction (NPI) by coordinating the development and release of engineering documentation which provided manufacturing the means to build new products.

Authored test and operating procedures, using rigid technical publication guidelines, which enabled test technicians to calibrate hardware and quantify test results on metric charts for factory acceptance. Schlumberger Industries 1987-1988

2230 Statham Boulevard, Oxnard, CA 93033

Test Engineer - Electronics:

Designed electronic and system hardware to interface with pressure transducers that were used in computer controlled manufacturing processes.

Engineered electronic hardware configurations in support of automated test processes which shortened the test cycle time by 15%, thus increasing throughput and productivity.

Advanced the automated test process by enhancing the use of analog-to-digital converters whose output signals were metrically analyzed for improved manufacturability and quality. Lockheed Space Operations Company 1985-1986

Vandenberg Air Force Base, Lompoc, CA 93436

Senior Systems Engineer - Avionics:

Supervised departmental engineers to metrically track their weekly progress on avionics projects in order to analyze the progression towards critical flight/launch schedules.

Verified the integrity of “Space Shuttle” data processing systems to ensure the flight readiness of hardware, software, and interfaces that controlled computer and guidance assemblies prior to launch.

Controlled computer subsystems from the launch control center that displayed the status of onboard avionics to the cockpit monitors on the flight deck of the “Space Shuttle.”

Authored, edited, and updated operational and maintenance procedures that instructed flight technicians to remove, modify, and/or replace electronic avionics hardware. EDUCATION: California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, CA Bachelor of Science - Electronic Engineering Technology
