• Oversaw construction, redesign, and modification of multiple data testing labs for industrial-size air compressors staying under the budget of 17 million and 3 million respectively while gaining relationships with vendors and negotiating cost contracts. Redesign improvements resulted in increased production efficiency by moving more widely used parts closer to machinists. • Collaborated with upper management and a team of machinists to create and modify existing reporting templates for collecting data from testing results that analyze temperature, pressure, and flow data while overseeing the teams’ results and checking for employee errors creating quicker reporting turnaround. • Led all training for a team of 5, including 1 electrical engineer, on how to properly test and follow all protocols while avoiding any work-related injuries, creating numerous improvements thus decreasing defects by 25% and increasing production by 20%. • Led team on drafting components and parts modifications using SolidWorks for any corrective or new work needed. Creo CAD software is used to analyze specific components for the package builds as well as electrical and component diagrams. • Oversaw the assembly of the components into complete units and perform package testing. Certified in High Voltage and high-risk working conditions with all industrial compressors running on high voltage varying from 480 volts to 4000+ volts. Daily testing was performed with impulse chambers to simulate high cycle stress on various oil coolers. • Worked with various testing software including LabView and National Instruments to write programs to simulate specific real-world test environments. Worked with acoustic, vibration and thermal testing for product verification

• Lead floor CNC machinist responsible for expert knowledge of multi-axis mills, routers, and lathes. • Perform and set up machinery for incoming jobs including machining fixtures, gathering, installing, and calibrating all tooling, setting all workpiece coordinates, performing any required tool offsets, and ensuring the machine is consistently running quality parts before working with the operators to maintain the output quality. • Lead quality controller for laser, digital, and mechanical micrometers, depth gages, concentricity gages, surface roughness gages, Keyence IDM systems, comparators, and coordinate measuring machines. • Extreme attention to detail is required as parts hold tolerances in the ten-thousandths of an inch. • Through collaboration with upper management, I implemented strategies to increase productivity and decrease waste through improved machine programming, utilizing multiple machines’ capabilities to run multiple parts at the same time. • Design and draft computer-aided models to customer specifications using Solidworks CAD software.
