Chassis’ designed to meet RS-310 standards and to ensure integrity of systems to pass agency testing; UL, CSA, CE, GS, TUV, & FCC. Responsible to take systems to test facilities to monitor testing and assure passage of systems to required standards. Successful in developing the first HIPPI switch chassis to meet agency requirements including FCC Class B in the industry. Documentation was completed using Autocad solid modeling Rel. 2000 thru Rel. 2002. Essential Communications was purchased by SBS Tech. in March 2002.

Responsible for custom packaging of Power Electronics, DC / AC Converter and Inverter units for the automotive industry and to obtain the mechanical component package outlines for all devices used on each PC Board. Using a proprietary excel spread sheet, generate a feasible square area and number of layers for PC Boards, to generate Mechanical Outline drawings for PC Boards, and to develop packaging including water-cooled heat sink for systems. Responsible to perform required thermal assessments and testing verification to assure criteria are met. Track and assure build & testing of prototypes for projects. Documentation was generated on UG-II Ver. 15.

Responsible for Documenting existing tool installations; to provide new mechanical services and facility routing for installed tools, including gas, bulk chemical, and drains from tools to lateral P.O.C’s (point of connection). Duties included to complete paperwork for P.O.C’s and popouts; update drawing files and master files with demolition and new work layers; including floor, ceiling, filter, plenum taps, pipe routing for tool installations and support for all levels of building. General Site Services support at Intel FAB 7,9,11 &19 sites.

Installed company automated material handling equipment (AMHS) into various "clean room" FAB's in order to expedite and control the silicon wafer development. This was accomplished by installing wafer storage (stocker) units, a monorail system with "CAR's" to transport the wafer cassettes to and from storage units; a machine loading robot vehicle (MLRV) to transport wafer cassettes to various furnaces for processing; and a cassette anomaly station (CAS) for aborted cassettes during processing. Performed "CAR" maintenance and monitored the facilities of the FAB for proper equipment installation. This included power, vacuum, and structural supports for equipment. Assure installed equipment complied with company specifications, initiated, monitored and analyzed "root cause" of problem equipment to identify isolated issues versus systemic problems and to develop and document all "As built" issues. Documents completed using Autocad Rel. 10 - Rel 12.

Developed; designed and detailed enclosures and rigid-flexprint PWB Mechanical Outline drawings, based on maximum volume within available locations specified by customer; with weight and temperature considerations. Incorporated thermal management planes and introduced surface mount technology for the rigid-flexprint circuitry. Enclosures were designed for using oven vacuum brazed AlBeMet material for strength and weight criteria. Duties included the estimated weight studies to be generated for all projects. Layouts and details were completed on Apollo workstations using Autotrol 3D. Sent to California to assess the manufacturing capabilities of vendor for the enclosures to the required specifications.

Responsible for conceptual layouts of three versions of test hoods to thermal cycle PWB's during the testing phase; Environmental Chamber Project. Developed test specifications and parameters, selected the HVAC system to support the test criteria, generated schedules for each project and interfaced with the vendors during the material procurement phase. Layouts and details were completed using Autocad Rel. 11 in 3D on personal computers. Sent to Arizona to re-align the schedule and oversee the completion of a PWB board test bed fixture.

Responsibilities included the Support of various departments; assisted in system temperature tests, airflow control and test, etc... Duties included Assisting in creating and establishing Manufacturing Processes and procedure reports for building JIT cells with the Manufacturing Engineering Dept. Duties also included creating general retrofit plans and procedure reports for on-site implementation of equipment. Equipment was designed to comply with the following agencies: VDE, CSA, NEC, UL & IEC (predominantly UL-1950). Layouts completed using Autotrol Rel 12 and Autocad Rel 10. Responsible for conceptual layouts and engineering of various, RS-310 compliant, rack mount equipment including, RMS chassis, Power Driver Chassis, VME chassis and others used to monitor the Lithography Stepper during wafer exposure.

Scheduled workloads, interviewed, hired, trained and conducted performance reviews for 6 mechanical engineers, designers, detailers and 2 documentation administrators and a mechanical test technician. Chairman of the Configuration/change Control Board (CCB) and ECO meetings. Coordinated all Safety Agency testing for all products released through engineering. Established standards and approval processes for PWB routing and layouts through to manufacturing release. Duties included the Creation of internal drafting procedures conforming to industry standards and to establish documentation standards and product release procedures. Member of NEDDMA (New England Design Drafting Managers Associations).

As a recent graduate, obtaining my Bachelor's Degree in project management, and exercising these abilities while working at MSI as a project manager, I am seeking an organization where my Project Management skills may be utilized, developed, expanded and will flourish to the benefit of both the organization and myself. My previous career as an Electro-Mechanical Design Engineer enhances my abilities as a project manager in dealing with teams and project understanding while gating and vetting requirements and deliverables. In my previous career I attain my first Project Management certificate in 1991 and the project management has been used as a tool for all preceding project endeavors since providing a base for many successful projects.
