Manager, iPhone/iPod Display Mechanical Engineering @ I manage a team of engineers who design and deliver the best-in-class displays for extremely high-volume products. We architect next-generation panels from the sub-component level up by working with a variety of display and system engineers to define how requirements drive the module envelope. Our group also develops new technologies, processes, and designs as needed to improve reliability and minimize impact on the system architecture. From January 2013 to Present (3 years) Display Mechanical Engineer & Architect @ Responsible for mechanical technology investigations and driving design rules to minimize component footprint in high-volume systems
Worked with electrical & process engineers as well as other cross-functional experts to define how performance requirements drive the component envelope
Key contact point for system teams (product design, reliability, quality, operations) on integration and troubleshooting
First mechanical engineer for the my group, later led staffing efforts to add mechanical engineers to groups supporting other product lines. Also mentored new mechanical engineers for my group. From October 2007 to January 2013 (5 years 4 months) Mechanical Engineer @ Contract product design for clients in telecommunications, consumer products, and biomedical. Primarily focused on rack-mount server design including sheemetal, injection molding, die-casting, and PCB design. Frequent use of tolerance analysis to optimize design of blind-mating customer-replaceable modules such as hard drive sleds & power supplies. From August 2004 to October 2007 (3 years 3 months) Product Design Intern @ From 2003 to 2003 (less than a year)
