EMPLOYMENT
Senior RF Design/Test Engineer II (Six Sigma Specialist), Raytheon, Space and Airborne Systems (SAS), Special Programs, June 1999-Dec 2011 – ACTIVE TOP SECRET CLEARANCE
• Project lead on constructing two new near field measurement test facilities.
• Converted a rectangular indoor antenna range to a dual indoor near field measurement test facility.
• Converted an old metal fabrication shop into triple indoor near field measurement test facility.
• Managed two capital work order packages, including facilities, contractors, range operations, and security.
• Designed and integrated five $1M test stations in the test facility including the near field probe/positioners, RF test equipment, RF switches and cable runs, digital communication and power to the UUT, test software, and measurement techniques.
• Resulted in two world-class test facilities that gave the program team approximately three times the testing throughput as compared to the previous test facility setup.
• AESA Antenna Digital / RF array controller concept, design, firmware, embedded software, and I&T
• Designed an AESA CCA controller from concept to final working hardware in 9 months.
• Generated 100 page digital schematic and teamed in the CCA board layout.
• Wrote VHDL firmware and embedded software for the Altera 1020 ball FPGA.
• Designed the entire test software package in LabVIEW and performed final testing of the AESA antenna.
• Received Raytheon’s highest technical honor, Excellence in Technology Award, in 2006 for design.
• Microwave stripline design lead and component integration on RF Feedboard Design Team.
• Designed the strip-line portion of two RF boards. Integrated the modeled parts into a final working design.
• Resulted in 1st pass test yields of > 95% as compared to the previous design’s 1st pass yields of approximately 50%.
• Resulted in a Six Sigma Project that totaled over $8M in cost savings. Received the 2002 Raytheon Quality SAS and Corporate Level Award.
• Lead production test engineer.
• Lead 3 shifts of 2 different production contracts of antennas to meet all program milestones and objectives.
• Responsible for testing and troubleshooting over $2.5M in product flow per day for two, three year periods.
• Completed 4 Six Sigma projects to get testing throughput at a level 4 times the test output as compared to 6 years prior. This included writing hundreds of LabVIEW VI’s and redesigning test equipment.
• Designed new software packages to troubleshoot returning production failures and its subassemblies.
COMPUTER SKILLS
• Operating Systems: MS-DOS, UNIX, Windows 95, 98, NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7
