Career Summary: My background is in applied physical science and engineering best suited for a lead role in product design including simulation, test evaluation, design standards and design validation of mechanical/electrical components.

Experience:

North American Lighting, Inc., Farmington Hills, MI

Lead CAE and Test Engineer, Engineering Analysis Group (9/97 to present) 40 hr/wk

Job Description Duties:

Evaluate and analyze lamp assembly numerically (FEA and CFD with CHT), analytically, empirically and by physical test for robust design to reduce design time, increase design process efficiency and save cost.

Recommend and predict performance (heat and mass transfer, structural, etc.) for materials, and component design (such as thermal and structural features, vents, electronic assemblies, etc) in the automotive lamp design process

Test and report for thermal endurance, thermal cycle, thermal shock, solar load, water intrusion, condensation, corrosion, structure and vibration

Lead project engineers, technicians and CAE/DV test engineers in developmental, validation, and certification testing, as well as test correlation to simulation by numerical methods (FEA & CFD).

Train technicians and engineers on procedures, report generation and pass criteria.

Participate in maintaining design, test standard guidelines, work instructions and DVPR.

Short-term assignments:

Perform root cause analysis with warranty returns to recommend countermeasures.

Construct, and setup laboratory maintenance on equipment such as a light source life test rack with computer data acquisition system, an EMI chamber, vibration isolation room for vibration system, and environmental wind tunnel to reduce outsource tests.

Evaluate vendor products and materials to promote vender competition to improve product quality and lower cost.

Co-authored several papers for SAE automotive lighting technology session and one for IEEE Semi-Therm to emphasize company product design ingenuity.

I have presented various training sessions on MS Excel and Access, DOE, test setup with data acquisition systems, Weibull analysis, Thermal analysis with FEA.
