Computer Science Engineer with over **+ years of experience as team leader in manufacturing industries for developing, supporting and upgrading production monitoring systems, automated test and process equipments, seeking opportunities to advance my career with more challenging technology development role, new products and process experience.
Skills
Able to work and leader both independently and on cross-functional teams for new product introduction and continuous improvement, determining and implementing best test strategies to improve test coverage, production yields, equipment utilization efficiency, and failsafe processes development.
ATE software development life cycle based on Microsoft Visual Basic and National Instruments Labview.
Production systems design based on LAMP technology (Linux, Apache, MySQL and Perl)
Process equipment design based on Automation Direct PLC systems.
Accomplishments
Management:
Experience on human resource management providing technical guidance to Test and Automation team of 6 engineers, 1 test technician and 2 product technicians to ensure that final products met or exceeded design and customer expectations, projects stayed on track and delivered under-budget, focused to deliver equipment with acceptance metrics below 12% based on Gage R&Rs, CPK >= 1.33 and efficiency >= 98%.
Reduce bone pile inventories from $90,000 to $2,000 in 6 months, thru inventories adjustments, scraping obsolete material, segregating product by failure mode, repairing material according cost, volume, failure mode, production schedule and repair time constrains.
Participated in “audition interviews” for Test Engineer and Test Technician candidates.
Testing, Evaluation and Analysis:
ATE and process equipment tested to ensure compliance for identification with high confidence of no conformance products.
Analyzed data and provided recommendations which resulted in adoption of new cost-saving equipment, test plan and/or test specification modifications.
