PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Quality Assurance Engineer / R & D LED lighting

Valuelight May 2013 – June 2015

Valuelight produces fluorescent and LED energy efficient lights for commercial and outdoor use.

This is a many hats position involving: Quality control. RMA’s

Development testing and safety qualification of new lighting LED units.. UL / CSA / Design Lights Consortium.

Design modification of "off shelf" units ( Mechanical using AutoCAD, Optical modification and electronic drivers.)

Customer liaison and problem solving. Use of Lighting software for determination lighting requirements

OPTO-MECHANICAL TEST TECHNICIAN

Xiris Automation Corp. 2009 – 2010

Optical set-up and testing for machine vision applications utilising high speed digital cameras. R & D for applications in label inspection, label positioning ( Bottles), defect detection ( Optical disks, Solar panels), Pre and post tube welding inspection (Laser line system). Designed and produced many mounts. Gained considerable experience on a milling machine.

OPTICAL TEST & DESIGN TECHNICIAN

Northrop Grumman, Toronto, ON 2001 – 2004

Produced a prototype LED backlight array with even Intensity and Chromaticity. Each colour LED having a different voltage and current drive versus Luminance

Renewed outdated LED display. Duplicated Chromaticity and Luminance output of old LED displays to meet Mil Specs

Actively involved in F18 display pre-production testing automation, wrote procedures, oversaw ‘first off’ testing, provided initial QA for processing specs prior to full production.

Tested new backlights and displays with AR and ITO coatings, with an emphasis on reflectivity verses viewing angle
