Dear Interested Recruiters and Hiring Managers:

I am pleased to provide professional reference for Douglas A. Coggeshall (Senior Mechanical Engineer), whom I have known for the past two years. Thank you for taking the time to consider him. I highly, yet humbly recommend, based on his demonstrated mechanical engineering expertise, he be selected to join your enterprise.

As the IBM Project Executive and Senior Site Executive, I hired Douglas to provide support on our IBM contract. He proved to be an expert engineer, successfully delivering strong results over the eighteen months he was assigned to the User Test Bed (UTB) facility, in St. Petersburg, FL. supporting HQ US Special Operations Command unclassified and classified research and development. Doug Coggeshall was one of the finest mechanical engineers to work at the UTB facility, exemplified by his excellent attitude, exceptional creativity, engineering acumen, and focused work ethic. He had an excellent relationship with the entire UTB engineering team and was instrumental in sharing his previous experiences to ensure the timely and innovative completion of critical projects to support the nations warfighters, special operators and intelligence community. Doug did not hesitate to invest personal time and resources to ensure capability was in place to accelerate the UTB engineering team’s development efforts. Doug also volunteered to assist with regular efforts to re calibrate technical satellite dish alignments. He assisted the UTB IBM management team in recruiting new engineering candidates, via his impressive Linked In database. During Hurricane Irma, September 2017, Doug displayed great initiative to help protect the facility from possible damage. Although not his primary job responsibility, Doug served as UTB’s graphics poster creator, producing excellent work for UTB & IBM conferences and special meetings, always delivered on time. Doug Coggeshall’s most acclaimed and recognized achievement was his inspired renaissance of the UTB

“3D Printing Engineering Lab”. To my surprise, and on his own initiative, Doug revolutionized both the appearance and technical scope of the UTB’s advanced 3D Printer. Doug Coggeshall coined the phrase

“UTB 3D Printing Center of Excellence” as he created an engineering capability marketing centerpiece for the UTB facility.

Unfortunately, the contract experienced a drawdown in funding reduction, which did not allow for retention of Douglas Coggeshall. Doug’s positive attitude and accomplishments will always be remembered by the UTB IBM team. If looking for a competent mechanical engineer, Doug has my strongest recommendations for consideration and selection. Sincerely,

Tony S.
