PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND:

TECHNICAL WRITER:

Employed by Aerotek Aviation, I worked at Nivis L.L.C. Feb. 21, 2011 to March 11, 2011.

My responsibility was to rewrite the Engineering level Test Procedure into a Production level Procedure for the Uninterruptable Power Supply. To try to make the test as efficient as possible, I developed a test that would have the test computer set up all the test equipment, take all the measurements and send them to the data sheets. By using the specifications the computer would determine if the UUT passed or failed the test. This involved creating a flow chart and a step by step method that the computer would have to do in running these test.

PRINCIPLE ELECTRONIC TECHNICIAN:

EMS Technologies Jan. 20, 2000 to July 14, 201I

I was responsible for building and tuning ferrite switches. This would involve setting up a network analyzer connected to waveguides and couplers. Then detectors would connect to the couplers to read Isolation, Insertion and return losses. By using tuning buttons I would determine and reading the network analyzer I would determine the optimum RF isolation and return losses and glue the button at that spot. For another project I had to build a test box. This in involved installing the components on the PC boards, wiring them to each other. I had to cut the holes and install the switches, potentiometers meters and then wire them to all the necessary board components. As far as the UUT was concerned I had to tune and setup the phase shifters using the test box I made.

For Live TV I was responsible for tuning the Phase shifters on the antennas. This was primarily done in a Near Field range using the computer to run the scan and it would determine the adjustments needed to tune the phase shifters.

For AEHF first I had to test and determining SAT (select at test) components on the Switch Driver, PAC Driver, Controlled Electronic, Power management and Relay boards. For this I had to hook them up to a test setup that was controlled by the test computer. Using temporary tuning potentiometers to set up the current pulse needed to drive the boards. When I was satisfied with the pulse shape I would remove the potentiometer, measure it’s resistance to determine the values needed on the boards. Then retest the boards if a problem an occurred I had to troubleshoot the board to find and correct the problem. Once the Units were built and ready I had to install them into the environmental chamber for the ATP (Acceptance Test Procedures) again this was mostly an automated test done by the computer.

On other projects I had to do install the units into a T-vac chamber and do high power testing on them.

CUSTOMER RETURN TECHNICIAN

At A.I.D. (Audio Intelligence Devices) June 6, 1988 to Oct. 10, 1999

I was responsible for testing, tuning and troubleshooting voice transmitters used in the law enforcement community. The equipment was used by the F.B.I., C.I.A., D.E.A. and Police agencies throughout the country. These products are very instrumental in gathering evidence in investigations that lead to the convictions of suspects. The micro technology allowed me to work with surface mount components in both narrow band and spread spectrum technology. I had to troubleshoot the return transmitter by tracing the signal through to the affected component, replace them and retune (if needed) the RF to specification levels and then test the units. Also, I assisted in the development of their Spread Spectrum Transmitters along with Testing and tuning them once they went into production.

Master Engineering Technician:

Sunair Electronics Oct. 6, 1982 to May 19, 1988

My responsibilities included working with HF transceivers was I had to test tune and troubleshoot any problems that would occur. This was a great place for me to gain the experience I needed for my first position out of college. The product incorporated technologies in both analog and digital circuitry which I was able to master my testing and troubleshooting techniques. One of the most frequent problems was bad receiver sensitivity so I had to cherry pick a certain Mosfet in the Mixer board to get the best response. These radios used many different types of circuitries. Like AF and RF amplifiers, local oscillators, mixers, digital decade counters, Flip Flops and a TCXO to set it all up. For controlling the unit an 8088 processor was used...

• 100% Bench testing, tuning and troubleshooting to component level.

• 80% increase in productivity through efficiently setting up environmental and ATP.
