CAD & Design Engineer

Responsibilities:

• Reverse engineer legacy product documentation with no/incomplete/wrong information. Some cases drawings have not had corrections for 30 years, and were incorrect
• Leveraged previous 3D/2D CAD modeling and detailing to correct models and drawings to manufacturing detail
• Translated experience from using MAS200 ERP system previously, to learning MS Great Plains ERP system
• Learned to use internal cataloging system for engineering change orders (ECO's). ECO's contained problem, and possibly solution. ECO was detailed with personnel responsible for each stage of the ECO showing their progress/approval
• Produced complete and correct assemblies, with matching bill of materials. One product had 3 versions made, but documentation had 1 BOM, incorrect AutoCAD drawings, with virtually no assembly model
• Created assemblies/drawings/bills for never documented wiring harnesses in production
• Corrected and creating assembly/drawing for gasoline V-Twin engine coupled with hydraulic pump
• Accessed floor frequently to record/catalog parts in use with no model/drawing/part number

Project & Design Engineer

Responsibilities:

• Business acumen learned by dealing with outside sales and outside engineering at our site. This in fact leads to managing diversity with inside/outside sales/engineering having different goals.
• Responsible for development of new hydraulic power units (HPU's), hydraulic control units (HCU's), an emergency shutdown actuators (ESD's)
• Approved drawings and had to submit drawings for production/manufacturing release Problem solving, technical learning, time management, and direct reporting
• Interacting and educating buyers that are sometimes not familiar with their system, nor how to proceed Laying out the SolidWorks project outline, and then the BoM Tree on how to proceed with designing Communicate with the buyer to find out what their specifications are at their site, and also to answer our questions regarding engineering, sizing, purchasing, and delivery
• Responsibilities are designing subassemblies in SolidWorks and building these up into the whole master assembly. After this I build the Bill of Material to release to the shop for production Most importantly factory test to release to client with satisfactory performance

Design Engineer

Responsibilities:

• As a SolidWorks designer to modernize and organize workflow for industrial lifts. File system required major organizational revamp
• Used part library to create assemblies and subassemblies. If part is not available, then would create parts by either making from new or getting 2D from vendor
• Used DriveWorks to create configuration of assemblies. Saves tremendous time by making minor changes to a master assembly. Normally time is wasted making minor changes to very similar orders
• Gained software experience with brake press and CNC plasma cutter. Units were controlled remotely inside of office. Floor would get instructions and proceed with sheet metal cutting and bending

Staff Engineer

Responsibilities:

• Used computational analysis tools to contrast and compare actual numbers recorded from test cells running jet fuel
• FEA simulations used to learned about risks and performance near critical limits of assemblies
• Work as a Hydraulic Engineer for the Confidential Hydraulic Actuator Dual Vane Pump. Development to Production program. As a team member I analyze reoccurring issues to alleviate halts in production and to complete prototype reliability program. Only unit on plane to complete rated 5800 hours
• Utilize tools such as MS Suite, UniGraphics, and the test data servers to compile presentations and reports on problems identified, steps taken to solve, and solutions reached
• Became familiar in how to navigate different departments in a large Fortune company. Maintaining peer relationships to leverage these relationships in the future
