Experience

  Hughes Network Systems

  Jul 2008 - Jan 2024

  I manage cross-functional teams that are focused on concurrent engineering projects. We launch new products, resolve defects discovered within the field and/or manufacturing process, manage product licenses and pursue product/service optimization objectives and cost reductions. The primary goals are to ensure an existing product line remains viable and the customer experience with our hardware is first in class. Managed supplier quality for passive electronic components, antenna assemblies and contract manufactured PCB assemblies. Evaluated manufacturing and warranty returns to isolate vendor related issues and pursue corrective action to prevent recurrence. Developed and maintained quality metrics to quantify supplier capabilities and performance. Provided technical training and procedural requirements for inspection protocol and material handling.
