RELEVANT WORK EXPERIENCE

10XBeta January 2021 - January 2023

Technical Project Manager Brooklyn, NY

● Personally led five successful integrated projects, delivering on client expectations and meeting 91% of all deadlines

● Coordinated client, stakeholder, and engineering teams input to ensure consensus on product requirements.

● Spearheaded the development of user experience and front-end app designs, successfully navigating client feedback

● Managed simultaneous R&D endeavors to determine the optimal product solution for stakeholder expectations

● Led cross-functional teams of Industrial and UI/UX Designers as well as Mechanical, Electrical, and Software Engineers to develop consumer products and medical devices with both physical and application components

● Oversaw the proposal generation cycle by managing the relationship between clients and internal teams to define requirements, create timelines, and determine cost that brought in $1m+ of revenue for 10XBeta

● Conducted weekly status meetings with engineering teams to review progress, proactively manage risks, close out any open issues, then define subsequent sprints of work

● Implemented an agile style task management system for both managers and employees that reduced the number of extraneous meetings and showcased prioritization of tasks for team members across parallel projects

● Forecast team capacity to determine the resources required for each of 10XBeta’s projects, hiring contractors when needed in order to maintain the project’s timeline

● Consistently monitored project progress to identify and remove blockers and risks, escalating issues when required Boyce Technologies Incorporated March 2018 – August 2020 Thermal/Mechanical Engineer Long Island City, NY

● Synchronized internal and external R&D efforts with BTI’s manufacturing facility to manufacture 3000 bridge ventilators for the state of New York at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States

● Oversaw the thermal aspects for all of BTI’s electromechanical products through their lifecycle, engineering numerous thermal solutions involving custom heatsinks, heat pipe assemblies, and air ducts for high power density devices

● Researched products’ usage requirements to determine the worst-case conditions that the products were to perform in, then defined thermal acceptance criteria and generated testing protocols to simulate the end use environment

● Conducted tests and analyzed data obtained during products’ design and manufacture phases to categorize thermal capability, recommend improvements, and validate product performance

● Supervised the overall product development for four projects by establishing schedules, overseeing their design, manufacture, testing, and delivery

● Designed chassis, enclosures, and mechanical components for numerous products currently installed throughout New York State for mission critical systems as well as pedestrian use

● Worked with 2D and 3D modeling software to interface with different teams and developed a thorough understanding of the user interface features relevant to different end users Rutgers University September 2015 - August 2018

Research Assistant Piscataway, NJ

● Expanded the scope of a research group focused on analyzing a single branch of cerebral vasculature by developing a Python program to generate 3D-models of large vascular structures

● Created user-friendly parameter adjustment tools to streamline code use amongst research participates

● Advanced the biological accuracy of the model beyond graduation to present our findings at the IMECE 2018 conference

ZT Systems August 2016 – November 2017

Thermal Engineer Secaucus, NJ

● Analyzed empirical data obtained from computer simulations, tests in wind tunnels, and thermal chambers to design thermal solutions for a multitude of rack mount computer servers

● Develop Bash and Python programs to configure the servers’ parameters, implement test procedures, and log data

● Utilized server sensor readings to create fan control algorithms that consistently minimized energy usage and provided adequate thermal margin under highly dynamic computational loads

● Completed expansive thermal reports detailing system performance to show clients our adhesion to product requirements

● Worked directly with clients to provide updates, present progress, and strategize subsequent development steps EDUCATION

Rutgers University School of Engineering Graduated: May 2016 Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Minor in Economics - Cum Laude New Brunswick, NJ

● Certificate in Energy Systems

● Member of Pi Tau Sigma (Mechanical Engineering Honor Society) and Delta Kappa Epsilon ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
