OBJECTIVE:

Responsible person seeking for a position where abilities, education, special training and experience can be effectively used according the company goals and objectives.

EXPERIENCE:

MFG Cost Engineer. 2006 – 2009. B/E Aerospace, Inc. Miami, FL.

• Generated master routers, detail analysis and standard cost (Mat’s Allocation, Setup Time, and Cycle Time) of components and sub-assemblies analyzing the manufacturability for different operation departments, management and/or projects using Micro Estimating System (MES) software, and support it with different CAD software such as Pro- E, Unigraphycs and Solid Work.

• Supported product development in the selection of tooling design, design reviews (DFM, DFA, and DFU) for new products, cost avoidance and supported prototype activities; represented a “manufacturing viewpoint” to ensure cost optimization during the development process. Calculated orientation costs for development proposals, revised and refined projections as development progresses, until final handover to manufacturing.

• Searched for cost reduction opportunities in existing product lines (OEM, Operations, and Sales) in order to compare actual cost performance against budget, identifying and analyzing variances, advising functional departments and management of preventing and correcting actions to optimize and standardize by recommending changes in material, equipment, tools, procedures and product/process used with an upstanding result of more than 30%.

• Supported outsourcing activities to validated purchasing needs or cost analysis to make decisions (Make/Buy); prepare and maintain financial analysis of design, manufacture, investment options and sensitivity analysis for business plans always to saving money and meet with the company goals.

• Created Material Allocation Sheet (Material usage), validated with statistic data of the real manufacturability process as a factor result of 2% of positive deviation to provide support Product Development and Product Control Department.

• Created Preliminary Cost Estimating Sheet supported and validated by a statistic data base from the system to bring an accurate cost estimated, base on experience of manufacturability process flow to provide a previous cost analysis of the majority departments with a high level of acceptance.

• Acted as a championship for meeting, implementing and supporting manufacturing product/process on methods for cost reduction, quality improvement, work measurement studies, line balancing and improved efficiency on existing and new products using standard techniques involving only minor innovations of methodology to provide cost solutions to problems involving a limited number of variables to management and engineering departments.

Manufacturing Engineer. 2003 – 2006. Paneltronics, Inc. Miami, FL.

• Prepared plans, process specifications and procedures, production aids and assembly fixtures, MRP support studies, factory cost work standards and assignments of similar complexity and magnitude where technical supervision provides an outline of tasks to be performed and suggestions as to methods of approach and procedures to be followed, achieving results in 100%.

• Established work measurement programs, analyzed work samples to develop standards for labor utilization and developed flow chart diagrams to identify bottlenecks to improve capacity, in order to capture and improve productivity and efficiency.

• Performance operations time studies, analyzed work force utilization, line balance and capacity to use maximize head count requirements, facility layout, and operational data such as product cost, labor cost in order to determine efficient utilization of the workforce, and equipment in more than 50% of implementation.

• Developed and supported the implementation and utilization of Lean Manufacturing, i.e. kaizen, Six Sigma tools and methodologies to improve manufacturing product/process and methods for cost reduction, quality improvement, and improved efficiency, achieving results in 100%.

• Applied statistical methods to estimate future manufacturing requirements and potential with the objective to restructuring job duties, reorganization of work flow, relocation of workstations and machinery in order to improve productivity as needed.

• Conducted analysis or test of routine degree of complexity pertaining to the development of new methods, materials, processes or standards and provides recommendations accordingly, to management and engineering departments.

• Supported product development in design reviews (DFM, DFA, and DFU) for new products, cost avoidance and supported prototype activities; represented a “manufacturing viewpoint” to ensure cost optimization during the development process meet with engineering department for new product introduction determined parts and tools needed in order achieve manufacturing goals according to customer needs.

Manufacturing Process Engineer. 2001 - 2003. Kelly Engineering Resources, Bausch & Lomb, Inc. Miami, FL.

• Assisted and supported protocol and executive validation (IQ, OQ, PQ) for CNC machines and manufacturing process including the statistical analysis software (used SPC data collection) to achieve acceptance criteria with a Cpk = 1.

• Made perform training to employees evolved in the validation process, preparing the forms and evaluating data to be collected during the validation process to assure good GMP process with high quality standards and tracking employees’ data reviewing the quality performance and efficiency vs. the standards product cost.

• Supported and assisted Senior Product Lead supervisor to keep and maintain operations with the high efficiency and performance in Mills, Lathe, Finishing and Service Department, development of production scheduled plan and manufacturing layout to analyzed process improvement, implementing cost reduction plan achieving manufacturing corporate goals and target days.

• Developed flow chart diagrams to identify bottlenecks, performance operations time studies, analyzed line balance and improve capacity to use maximize head count requirements in order to implemented programs to eliminate backlog and back order in components for new units and service units in less than three months, achieving results in 100%.

• Developed and implemented tooling usage control rooms including the computer tracking and tool management usage also Contacting suppliers to negotiate tooling cost and tooling improvements to speed up the process with the use of new technology, achieving results in 100%.

• Reviewed and implemented software programming changes and improvements the machine utilization with results of increasing efficiency and machine utilization in 50%. Supporting 2nd shift reduction.

• Reviewed and written operation procedures (SOP’s) to support the implementation of Lean Manufacturing process concept in all manufacturing areas in less than six months, achieving results in 100%..

• Developed complex mechanical process to complete product implementation also working in design complex mechanical device (2D, 3D) and development of new prototype to improve productivity as needed and support all manufacturing production.

• Evaluated purchase of new equipment needed in the implementation of new process. Developed product-manufacturing instructions. Selected components and suppliers. Generated bills of materials (BOM) and complex mechanical drawing and other design documentation.

CNC Machinist Supervisor. 2000 - 2001 Mark Two Engineering, Inc. Miami, FL.

• Programmed, setup and operated CNC equipment. Machines include Citizen L and M series lathes, Mazak mills and Turns Bucklers Deco 2000 series machines.

• Assisted on the supervision of operators also include using Smart Scopes, OPG and hand-held measuring devices along with Auto/Cad 2000 to produce blue prints to measure and manufacture parts to very close tolerances.

• Evaluated purchase of new equipment needed in the implementation of new process. Developed product-manufacturing instructions. Selected components and suppliers. Generated bills of materials (BOM) and complex mechanical drawing and other design documentation.
