RELATED EXPERIENCE

ErgotecH Inc., Danbury, CT; 06/2007-08/2007; 04/2009-Present

Mechanical Design Engineer

Managed prototyping and developing projects of new series of lifting columns for materials handling in manufacturing

environment. Implemented functional C codes to the integrated controller board to successfully control and store positions,

synchronize up to four machines and monitor safety of operations.

Designed electromechanical components and assemblies for all series of ergonomic products (in AutoCAD and SolidWorks).

Created engineering layouts/drawings for suppliers, customers and in-house machinists. Provided GD&T and design criteria of

jigs, fixtures for manufacturing processes. Programmed CNC operation codes. Performed as design lead to provide customized

solutions to functional, dimensional and visual requirements.

Pitney Bowes Inc., Shelton, CT; 05/2008-12/2008

Mechanical Engineering Co-op

Teamed with senior engineers of the R&D group to prototype new Mail Finishing systems integrated with Hewlett-Packard

inkjet print engines. Utilized signal processing, laboratory testing and software troubleshooting to validate and improve

system configurations for better mail/paper handling.

Performed as testing group lead and improved the readability of 1D/2D barcodes and color prints on the mail pieces by

30%. Successfully doubled the print pen life provided by Hewlett-Packard after integrated with Pitney Bowes’ mailing

systems.

Authored various laboratory and technical manuals. Received top honor for the final Co-op presentation.

Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT

Master's Thesis; 08/2006-05/2009

Analytically and computationally researched the vibration localization phenomenon in nearly periodic structures

(bladed-disks). Simulated the vibration behavior of aircraft turbine blades in MATLAB and ANSYS. Developed a scheme using

coupled piezoelectric circuitry to realize both vibration delocalization and suppression in the system.

Teaching Assistant (in Mechanical Design, Computational Mechanics, etc); 08/2006-05/2007

Tutored and provided detailed assessment to undergraduate students. Assisted professors in preparing class projects,

assignments and lab activities.

BaoSteel Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China; 03/2004-03/2005

Structural Design and Marketing Intern

Conducted composite material failure test and stress analysis during the construction of the base of a blast furnace.

Applied linear/nonlinear FEA process to the steel structure (in ABAQUS and ANSYS) during the construction of machine

shops and warehouses assigned by companies such as INTEL, KOHLER and General Motors.

Assisted in drafting the bidding documents. Translated various construction documents from Chinese to English.
