  COMMERCIAL AIRPLANES – CUSTOMER SUPPORT• Performed and obtained regulatory agency and operator acceptance of Structures Maintenance Steering Group (MSG)-3 Analysis for the Boeing 777-9 and 737-800BCF aircraft. • Developed and obtained Industry Steering Committee (ISC) approval of Maintenance Review Board Report (MRBR) Structural Maintenance Program inspection tasks for the Boeing 737NG series aircraft. • Performed Lightning/HIRF MSG-3 Analysis on the Boeing KC-46 and 787 aircraft.**KEY CONTRIBUTIONS**• Fuselage Structure Lead Engineer who developed the Structural Maintenance Program of the Boeing 777-9 aircraft utilizing the MSG-3 analysis process.• Structural Maintenance Program Subject Matter Expert (SME) of the Boeing 737-800BCF aircraft.COMPUTER EXPERTISE• Integrated Visualization Tool (IVT). Whole aircraft visualization.• Microsoft Office applications: Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Visio Professional. Show less SATELLITE SYSTEMS• Integrated Mechanical Engineering and Manufacturing council lead.• Analysis Tools council lead.• Model Based Design (MBD) project lead for all mechanical design engineering groups.• Engineering applications CAD training and education program, course planning, scheduling, and coordination project lead.• Project Integration Lead (PIL): Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tool (Teamcenter Enterprise) to Operations and Supplier Management (OSM) common systems applications.• CAD tools migration project lead.• Participated in engineering process improvement initiatives and developed and released multiple process documents and command media.**KEY CONTRIBUTIONS**• Managed affordable, competitive and healthy portfolio of low-cost technical service providers for both Non- Recurring Engineering (NRE) and Recurring Engineering (RE) phases of satellite programs. Yielding $5.7 million in cost savings for 2015.• Co-led effort to obtain 3D printers and standing up a 3D Printing Prototyping Cell to provide easy access to affordable and timely Additive Manufacturing rapid prototyping capability. Yielding $1 million in annual cost savings. • Project managed the development and deployment of a new application for the mechanical Harness design team to meet their sequencing requirements using the site’s common CAD tool (Creo Parametric). This removed resource constraints and yielded efficiency cost savings of $18,000 per spacecraft.• Project managed the Deployment of CAD Manikin models to all mechanical design engineers. This enabled designers to perform Design For Manufacturing, Assembly, and Test (DFMAT) analyses and perform ergonomic safety analyses to help reduce injury in the factory. • Co-wrote and project managed the deployment of site-wide CAD modeling standards bought off by all engineering mechanical design teams.COMPUTER EXPERTISE• Creo Parametric, Creo View, PDMLink 3D solid parametric modeling and drawing creation.• CATIA V5. Show less SATELLITE SYSTEMS• Performed structure design and integration using CAD parametric solid modeling for conceptual layouts and load path development, detail part development, and assembly and installation drawing creation for both metallic and composite structure in an Integrated Product Team (IPT) and concurrent engineering environment.• Performed sustaining engineering function and served as Liaison Engineer to investigate, disposition and apply corrective action to manufacturing and assembly nonconformance issues.• Teamed with Boeing Information Technology (IT) in the development, testing and implementation of a web-based knowledge management application (Visual Product Library) to house and promote the reuse of structural components.COMPUTER EXPERTISE• CADDS 5. 5000+ Hours of 3D solid explicit and parametric modeling and drawing creation.
