STATEMENT OF CAPABILITIES

If you are looking for an engineering project manager to manage and lead a product development team, you have found the right person. My experience ranges across multiple industries and there is no project I can’t handle. I have managed complete engineering projects with cross-functional teams and I have been responsible for detailed design. I have in depth experience in leading and supporting new product development projects involving conceptualization, design, research & development, testing, prototyping, release, production implementation and post-launch support in a matrix environment. I have extensive experience in organizing and managing multiple projects, and meeting deadlines. I have over 17 years of product design and development engineering experience. I will initiate, develop and implement ideas to enhance the company product line, to reduce cost or improve the company standards, processes and procedures. I will develop and manage project work scopes, risk, schedules, costs, quality and resource requirements, and serve as a highly effective and adaptive project manager. The majority of my direct experience has been with mechanical and electromechanical new product development; however, my PROJECT MANAGEMENT skills and experience will allow me to contribute to any engineering organization.. My skills will allow me to identify and implement best practices, and transfer knowledge of customer needs and solutions and contribute to the continued development of any high-performance engineering organization.
